Sjogren's/Dry Mouth/Dental Decay

[Guest guest]

I was told by my rheum to purchase a product (which I did)called

Biotene. It comes as a toothpaste, mouthwash, and chewing gum. It is

supposed to contain the enzymes that are missing in the saliva of

Sjogren's patients which leads to dental decay. I found it at my local

pharmacy but cheaper at my local Walmart. I haven't done much research

on it but it does not contain peroxide. If anyone has ever tried this

product (which I am doing currently) please give me some feedback.

On top of that I haven't been feeling well lately. I discontinued all

of my medications (and a long list it was) except for 2. I am going to

have to wean myself off of those extremely slow (effexor and

klonopin).

I will write/post more when I am feeling better. There is an awful lot

to read about since I haven't logged on in 3 weeks. All of you are an

endless stream of information and knowledge but most of all

inspiration.

God Bless!
