God Bless You! Yes, I have had hypersalivation since Covid last year. I have tried everything from ENT doctor to Infectious Disease Doctor and no answers. I believe Covid attacked the mucosa & salivary gland in my mouth. I do not drool, but, I have to spit a lot and scrape my tongue first thing in the morning. ENT thinks its reflux, Gastro doctor says it is not reflux. I just say, it's COVID. I get choked on this stuff at night. Some things help like Xylitol gum, salt water rinses, and Colgate Peroxdyl rinse, but, its temporary. Eating very salty foods makes it worse. I also try and drink more water as this thins out mucous. Anything prescribed by a doctor to dry out my mouth dries out my eyes too much as I already have dry eyes. I pray we find some answers. I am going the Integrative Medicine route and getting IV infusions for Long Covid. Blessings to you.
