Dry Mouth

Suffering from DRY MOUTH problem. Some times not able to pronunciate lengthy words. Very depressing. Can you suggest any medicines for REHYDRATION besides drinking lot of fluids.

dry mouth is one of the symptoms of high blood sugar.it is necessary to bring down blood sugar level if you are diabetic or you may get tests done for diabetic diagnosis with the help of a doctor.

Thanks for the reply. I am trying to control sugar level but it is not coming below 140 (fasting).

you have to try hard to bring bsl fasting below 100 b change of diet,exercise and medicine with doctors consent.

It could be side effect of any medicine that you might be taking.Just google for all the medicines that you are taking and look for side effects.I know that some medicines taken for sedation,reducing tension etc cause this problem.

Another point is,condition of yous nostrils.Are they normal and wide enough to breath freely?If not ,to facilitate adequate breathing we may keep the mouth open,particularly during sleep,causing dry mouth.You can rule out these two possibilities yourself.

Please keep posting,in case you find a solution,since I too have a similar problem.
