Saliva Issue

Posted by chrisself @chrisself, Nov 17, 2023

Latest strange symptom: excessive saliva causing occasional drooling. Brain MRI shows nothing. Neurologist said could be inflammation now in salivary glands. Anyone else experiencing this symptom? Long hauler for 17 months…

What inhaler have you found that helps with mucus? My son has tried every kind of nasal spray, albuterol inhaler and Flovent inhaler and none of that works. He has almost all of the long covid symptoms but the mucus is the worst.

My doctor prescribed this. For me, the Albuterol wasn’t effective enough. This has two medications and a glass container to load a cartridge in. It’s not a steroid. Your doc can tell you more than I can recall being told. This links to the product. I don’t know if all the statements are accurate. Ask your doc. https://www.goodrx.com/combivent/what-is

Yes! I’ve not had an issue with drooling, but I seem to be producing more saliva than normal.
