I have sgrogrens syndrome too. Medication is minimally helpful but expensive. Mine started with lack of saliva & flare ups can make it hard to swallow, it can feel like my airway might close. I hope they come up with something new that works.
I can say I find relief by staying well hydrated and also use daily Zylimelts. They are the best thing on the market. SS is now making my eyes dry& I use steroid drops.

Seems like the medication’s to promote saliva don’t help a lot of people. It would seem important to try to come up with something more nuanced and effective.
