How do I relieve dry/cotton mouth if my mouth is still dry, no matter HOW MUCH water I drink?

Question

My antidepressants give me dry mouth. I'm on Wellbutrin.

Answer 1

Try hard candy, or sucking on a button.  

Answer 2

It is a very normal side affect of Wellbutrin.  You need to contact your Dr if it is so severe that it is affecting your everyday life. Either your dose needs to be adjusted or something is wrong.  There are other things you can do such as eat popsicles and suck on hard candy, and chew gum, but I would call my Dr.  If it is so bad that it is affecting you then something is wrong.

Peace & Love  :)

Answer 3

My first thought too would be to suck on a hard candy or something.  I found this website that may have some answers.  www.bad--breath.net

Good luck and I hope this helps!
