During your CPAP adjustment period, did you wake up with a dry mouth and sore throat? What did you do to fix it? Have you been classified as a mouth breather? Have you ever tried mouth tape?
Any advice is welcome!
Take care,

Hi… I tried mouth tape for the same reason as you I was quite unhappy with it a total waste of money IMO I did everything to try and get it to stick for my than 15-min shoot I even tried high tack wide masking tape it didn’t solve any of my issues I tried chin strap and tape I figured my mouth breathing is to engrained.. I am using an ASV with full face mask now when I stop breathing it bumps the pressure up to 19-22 psi BUT my apnea numbers are extremely good now 0.1-0.5 vs 33-35 I feel better now and my BP has responded well best of luck others may have had better luck with tape than I…

I wear a CPAP every night and still wake up exhausted, dry mouth , and sore throat. I was told it could be that I am a mouth breather. I have tried chin strap but I could not tolerate it. I have also had my rate on my machine checked as well. Has anyone tried the mouth tape, if so does it really work. I am so frustrated.
