Xerostomia, Dry Mouth
As a patient with Lupus and Sjogren's syndrome, I am always looking for a relief to some of the symptoms. I recently went for my routine 6 month check up with my rheumatologist.Dry Mouth is a major issue for me, so when visiting my doctor I mentioned it to him, and he gave me a prescription for Salagen (pilocarpine) 5 mg. Normal dosing is one 10 mg. pill 3 times-a-day.
