I have been on this med for 4 months and the flushing only comes once in a while. But I have had extreme dry mouth ever since I started the medication. It usually starts within 3-4 hours of taking my first dose of the day. Does anyone else have this? If so what can I do to get rid of it?

Hi Alissa,
Have you tried a dry mouth rinse like Biotene?

My dental hygienist told me that tartar producing bacteria thrive in a dry mouth, and that xylitol helps to fight this. She recomended keeping xylitol mouth lozenges available to help with dry mouth.
