Almost everyone has had a dry mouth at one time or another. For some people, however, this is a chronic condition, which can make daily life uncomfortable.
The technical term for this is xerostomia, and it can have a variety of causes:
- Antihistamines
- Cholesterol-Lowering Drugs
- Decongestants
- Diuretics
- Pain killers
- Radiation Therapy For Cancer
- Diabetes
- Sjögren’s syndrome (an autoimmune disorder)
- Dehydration
- Dry weather
