For Sjogren's Syndrome "This saved my life. I am bipolar and take a dozen medicines, the dentist told me dry mouth like mine would cause permanent damage and tooth loss. I bugged and bugged doctors until they prescribed Evoxac. I went to my next dental check-up and the dentist wanted the name of the drug. Sure, sometimes I drool in my sleep, but I think I will go to my grave with the choppers GOD gave me, and I thank Him every single day for the person who invented Evoxac."

For Sjogren's Syndrome "Evoxac was a lifesaver for me. I take seven different medications for the management of my bipolar disorder, and they dry my mouth out terribly. My tongue would ache and feel like sandpaper. I brushed my teeth throughout the day, and my breath felt foul, and I was afraid to speak much. My mother-in-law has Sjögren's and told me about Evoxac. My psychiatrist had never heard of it, but I talked him into prescribing the medication for the awful dry mouth side effects. Within one hour of taking my first dose, my mouth filled with saliva. It felt like a small miracle. You don't know what you miss until it is gone. This medication is a simple blessing for the people who need it! All psychiatrists should know about Evoxac. Anticholinergic side effects are too common as a side effect of psychiatric medications. Evoxac improved my quality of life greatly."

For Sjogren's Syndrome "I have had severe dry mouth now for about 2-3 years and told all my doctors who then told me to take Biotene and other mouth rinse. Never helped. Finally got Evoxac and it has really helped. I no longer worry about swallowing food and fear that I will choke or something getting stuck in my throat going down. My mouth went from dry as a desert to wet, I sometimes drool, but I don't mind. I was miserable waking up every morning with a horrible taste and dental problems, and so on."
