The VA supplies a Product simply called "Artificial Saliva" I mix it 50/50 with biotene mouth wash in a small refillable spray bottle (Pump Type). I keep this with me 24/7. My ENT's and Dentist's agree that I will probably never get my SPIT back. Taste, some but not much... I cannot taste sweets. Darrell
