Dry mouth: Your medications can cause dry mouth. Dry mouth can lead to cavities so good dental care is important. Biotene products can help your mouth feel better. Avoid mouthwashes with alcohol, they can dry it even more. Chew xylitol or sugar free gum can stimulate saliva. Reduce highly acidic and sugary foods and drinks. See your dentist for mi paste or fluoride. Hope this helps.
