I have tried Salagen (didn't work) and had some success with Evoxac. I'm currenty a year plus one month out of treatment and doing well. It takes some time for things to return.
OTC solutions were marginal at best. This week some new products are coming out. They should be available by the first of February. Numoisyn Liquid and Numoisyn Lozenges. The liquid is an artificial saliva and the lozenges stimulate saliva production. They have no side effects and should help you. Your ENT or Rad Oncologist should here about them soon.
