Because the mucous membranes and moisture-secreting glands of your eyes and mouth are affected, tears and saliva is decreased.
Which medication do you use to increase the production of saliva? How has the success been? Do you experience any side effects?

Salagen = pilocarpine. At need, no more than 2 pills /day.
