Lepreckaun,

It's odd that your taste is okay but saliva is an issue. That just shows you how different the reaction is for everyone. There just seems to be no blanket effect or answers to these type of issues as we all just react differently. There are a couple of different Rx type drugs that seem to help with saliva issues with some folks although did not help me. I tried the one called Evoxac with no results. My ENT told me that they work better the earlier you try them as opposed to waiting over a year out of Tx as I did.
