Which medicines may cause a sore, dry throat?

Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

That would be too: long a list for 400 characters or less. Better idea- do a side effect check for each medication you are on. You can do that on Drugs.Com. Or ask your pharmacist to do a check for each of your meds.
