Treatment for excessive mouth watering?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Choices abound: When people make excessive saliva, there are medical options, like drops and pills, as well as surgeries that remove the salivary gland(s) or reposition the drainage ducts. See a head & neck surgeon for a discussion of the right options for your case.

Medications: If you also have excessive sweating you may have a condition where the autonomic nervous system is over active and many of the secretory glands are working excessively. There are relatively safe medicines with modest side effects to control the condition.. Diagnosis must preceed treatment.
