Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your concern . The excess saliva in mouth in known as 'HYPERSALIVATION' . This occur due to many reasons like :-

- Gastrointestinal reflux.
- liver disease.
- oral infection .
- Due to some medications .
- Neurological problem.

Most common treatment is to avoid causative factor .

I would suggest you to to consult physician for proper diagnosis and to find out the exact cause .

Doctor may prescribe drugs that will decrease saliva production like ' GLYCOPYRROLATE ' , 'SCOPOLAMINE ' OR ' NORTRYPTYLINE' .

If your doctor find that it is a neurological disorder then you should consult neurologist.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
