Default Dry Mouth

Anyone else have a problem with dry mouth??? I am not having the bad taste issue but the dry mouth full of cotton is drivin me ! I drink TON's of water (between 100-140 ounces a day - note: I have a 20 oz water bottle at work I fill five times a day and then drink 2-3 more bottles of water at home before bed) and still no help - breath sprays give some relief, but not much... Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Are you taking any prescriptions etc? I took welbutrin to quit smoking and that was one of the worst side effects for me.

Aside from drinking your water i'm really not sure whatelse you can do?

I am having this issue and discussing it with my Dr. as I think it may due to a yeast overgrowth. Its liek no matter how much water I drink a day (1 gallon) i still have this odd taste and like a pasty feeling in my mouth.

Sadie147: No - not taking anything... Though plan to start back up on the Chantix in a few months (March 1st to be exact) Hoping to be like you and Emma and a Atkins EXSMOKING success .

Mirya: Please keep me posted on what the doctor says - I suppose its possible about the yeast - I have severe dry itchy skin, but when I did the questionaire I didn't score real high being positive for yeast.

Thanks,

What is the spit test. I know my husband says I have bad breath, do you think it might be a start of that. Don't overdo the water, sometimes more is not as good as just enough.
