I am taking a medication called Metoprol OL SUC ER. i SUFFER FROM SEVERE DRY mOUTH ALTHOUGH AN ENT DOCTOR said i have plenty of saliva. My dentist says my saliva is very thick. I drink Plenty of water, spearmint tea which gives me some relief. I also suck on sugarless candy, and we have a vaporizor in our bedroom at night. At night, it seems to go away, but I am terrriblydiscomforted during the day. Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thank You.

How much sugar or salt do you have in your normal diet?

There are toothpastes specifically for dry mouth.
