What Causes Excess Salivation And Sleeping Problems At Night?

I have been suffering from excessive saliva at night for more than 5 years. That is the reason why I have sleeping disorders. What do you think is the reason why and what medicine should I take? I am 40 years old, weighing 80 kilograms and with a height of 180 cm.Many thanks.
