I had the same problem for about four months. There are several products on the market that may help. Your pharmacy should have a few gels for xerostomia that helped me. Name brands do not come to mind, but your pharmacist can help. There are a few prescription product tha tmay work as well. Salagen did nothing for me. I will check my med cabinet to see if I cna get some names for you and try to post this evening.
