Hi Jojo and anyone else who has DRY MOUTH problems.

I like to use BIOTENE toothpaste and mouthwash. Discovered this a few years back when the mouth sores were rampant with weekly Adriamycin.

We still use it and has actually STOPPED my husband's gum deterioration problems. It did help me also when, earlier this year, I was on the mega dose of Decadron, which does weird things to your tongue and mouth.

These products are available in my local independant pharmacy.
