Agree with Dr. A: Dry mouth may be due to GERD. You need to address the cause of GERD. If you are overweight, that may be causing GERD due to increased intrabdominal pressure and it would be imperative to lose weight. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.

GERD may dry mouth: A number of associated phenomenon could be the cause (or contributory) to a dry mouth such as oral breathing due to laryngeal acid REFLUX into the pharynx or bronchi. Other things that can lead to dry mouth (xerostomia) could be things such as SLEEP APNEA, medications, and OTHER medical conditions.
