Hi
Is anyone suffering apart from the normal Parkinsons sympyoms with a constantly dry mouth and tongue 24/7.
My medication are Madopar 200mg Entapone Madopar125mgCL.
Any body have this problem?

Hi,

If it's any help, many of the meds I have tried, particularly Mirapexin, gave me a dry mouth for a while, but this has always worn off as time has gone on. I have thought to myself that this is the meds working, only my theory because as a symptom of Pd I salivate loads, particularly at night, and the meds seem to control this. Hopefully this won't last you forever.

All the best,

Chris
yes, and it can cause problems with teeth as saliva protects them from decay
Thanks to those who replied

I must admit I'm getting a lot of that lately and I just started Half Sinimet CR 125mg. I think these tablets do dehydrate you and you need to drink plenty of water but slowly.
