Anyone know what works better than salagen for radiation xerostomia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many doubt: The value (benefit/cost) of sialagen - i don't use it. Best is to avoid xerostomia by parotid protection/avoidance, some advocate ethyol, more costly and more toxic. We don't have a cost effective remedy, .
