I had no chemo. I took Salagen 3 to 4 times a day during treament and for a few years afterwards. Other drug did not exist at the time of my radiation. I have a good deal of saliva, but it is thicker than before. Part of that problem was caused by the unnecessary removal of my right submandible saliva glands.
