I’m not having radiation. But chemo makes my mouth very dry. The only thing I’ve found to help is drinking Gatorade. I drink the kind with sugar not artificial sweeteners as they make my stomach hurt.

They do sell artificial saliva. I’ve not been using that.

I’ve also used a compound mouthwash when o had a mouth sore. It had a numbing agent as well other things. I used it three times and the mouth sore went away. The nurses also advised a gargling with a warm salt water mix, just like my mom used to do when I had a sore throat.

Hope something helps. Hugs
