Ask your doctor for pilocarpine, that may be more effective for you. Some days are worse than others for dry mouth.

I took pilocarpine for about 3 years the sweating and increased temp was an issue for me ( I was sent to a factory to work and the first day there my boss meets me there to unload tools and that’s when Covid hit just my luck first day taking the pill and hey said I had fever, we waited 15 minutes and it went away . So I had to wait till I got to work to take it. ) I recently asked the Dr to try anything else so she put me on Cevelimine and the sweating was worse. Anyone else have that problem ? Do you take yours with or without food? Sometimes it seems like the food causes it then others it don’t !
