Something to thin out the mucous so you can clear it more easily like plain robitussin or regular mucinex (same active ingredient) and then someting to dry it up to stop the dripping into the stomach, which causes nausea. A portable home suction unit was helpful for me b/c I had a hard time clearing my secretions by spitting after my partial glossectomy.
