XEROSTOMIA, DRY MOUTH

Using thyme honey as an oral rinse proved to be very efficient in reducing subjective and objective dry mouth scores thus relieving xerostomia in geriatric patients with ESRD.Both salivary flow rate and salivary NO levels were significantly higher after one month of using thyme honey oral rinse than the control group without known negative side effects.Thyme honey would be a promising alternative to the currently used medications for treating xerostomia.
