Pilocarpine

Good evening Jako. My hubby tried the tablets at some point, but they made him feel nauseous and he complained about headache.  So he stopped them and tried alternatives ,but this is only my husbands experience, but others may have more positive experience. Fellow wife Mel .

Thanks Mel, what alternatives did he try and do he have success? I’m not using anything and only 8 weeks post so I’m hoping it will naturally improve 

It was his nutritionist who suggested to try Xylimelts, compare to pilocarpine, these are available over the counter. You just place a melt under the gumline and let them "melt" away, you can use these several time a day. They seem to do the job for him. He is now 21mths post treatment and only uses them during the night. I believe I have seen posts on here were these got mentioned.

Thanks Mel. I’ll give those a go 

• From what we learned, they seem a bit safer to use ie no unpleasant side effects. Good luck. All the best. X
