I was taking Salagen and tried Evoxac and recently stopped taking everything. I don't notice any difference...the mouth is dry. It gets really bad with the post nasal drip from allergies. I try Robitussin from time to time and the thickness gets better but the mouth is just dry. I buy bottled water by the case whenever it is on sale and drink one 16 oz bottle per hour, a sip at a time. I keep a couple of cases in the car and pack some with me wherever I go. I sip some every 5-10 minutes and nothing works better than that for me.
May the camel pass you by!
