From what I've read here over the past several years, and from conversations with my RO, it sounds as though individual results can vary a lot with Salagen and Evoxac. However, I've had a great deal of help from Salagen -- I take 5 mg doses, 3x a day, and have been doing so for 15+ years. When I had radiation, IMRT wasn't even around (and neither was ethyol), so there was nothing that could be done at that time to help my salivary glands. It took a very long time for me to see improvement, but it definitely did get better, bit by bit.
