1 ReactionNo, I have not heard of them. I have used in the past.XyliMelts The reason I like them, they stick to the roof of my mouth and if I’m coughing, I don’t worry about choking or inhaling them. They’re in a cough. And they do work
You will have to do some more research on this what you

2 ReactionsMy aunt has sjorgen's. I looked velora lozenges up online. It is focused on the introduction of healthy bacteria for balanced oral flora. If your immune system is compromised due to Sjorgen's, talk to your doctor about the possible effects of the introduction of oral probiotics into a compromised immune system. Thank you for posting this. I will ask my aunt what she uses.

1 Reaction@minnesota10 I buy xylimelt tablets on Amazon. Have been using them for a couple of years and they help a lot.
Biotene has started making a gel that helps me get through the night without rinsing my mouth many times.
