What helps with dry mouth with Sjogren's?

Does this work for you? I've been using over the counter drops, gels and ointments.

I have tried pilocarpine on two occasions. The side effects were unbearable, cold sweats to the point of shivering, then hot sweats that left me feeling clammy
Just to get saliva I use x-pur gums, x-pur pastilles, Thera breath dry mouth lozenges. Also pur mints. I use biotene dry mouth spray and biotene mouth gel. I chew sugarless gum and lifesavers.
Now I am starting to feel nauseous, not sure if it’s because of all the above.
Life is not as much fun, when you have loss of taste, so this has effected my mental status.
Can anyone relate or have and more helpful suggestions?

I have not by diagnosed with this but I drink water throughout the day for my dry mouth. For my dry eyes I use Systane Hydration PF eye drops, I have hypothyroidism, PBC/cirrhosis which are autoimmune diseases.

I was diagnosed with Sjorgens syndrome 14 yrs ago. I was also diagnosed with St4 NH Lymphoma 5 years ago. Thankfully I am blessed to be in remission for 3 yrs now. My son is a Dr. of Internal Medicine. He told me there is now a medical connection between Sjorgens and Lymphoma. Now, when diagnosed with Sjorgens he orders a cancer panel also. I am sharing this because for me to be St 4 I had Lymphoma for many years. Please talk to your Drs and have a cancer panel done if you have Sjorgens syndrome.❤️

I have the same problems. I take Plaquenil and Systane eye drops. At first I was treated for lupus and Sjorgens.
Now the diagnosis is connective tissue disorder and Fibromyalgia.
Symptoms vary. Deal with extreme fatigue.

I was diagnosed with Systemic lupus and Sjögren’s over 30 years ago. Up until now I could use lubricating eye drops which don’t contain preservatives and a gel at bedtime. This last year he have been in so much pain with my dry eyes and nothing worked . I am using hylo forte eye drops every hour and Vitamin Pos eye ointment at bedtime as I am now waiting for the Red Cross to take my blood and make Autologous serum Eye drops that are all the good nutrients that can repair the cornea . I hope it works as I can’t enjoy my life with the constant pain and burning in my eyes. I have to flood them with single vial tears in the morning to get my eyes to open. This is a new treatment and suppose to work very well. I hope they work for me.
