The dry mouth issue affects us all. I have used oralgel, plus several other oTC products, none with much success. I had some luck with Evoxac which is a perscription drug. At the end of January, there wil be two new products I think may help. Neither has any side effects. They are Numoisyn Liquid and Lozenges. They will be available by perscription and your Rad Oncol should know about them soon.
Hope this helps.,
