I get the sweets without sugar that you can suck and this helps with drooling.

I had read somewhere in these posts that Benadryl sometimes works. No experience with it, but Im sure its worth a try.

Drooling is no fun. Mine started 10 years after my PD diagnosis. I know of nothing to stop it or slow it down, just another symptom of progression. Keep a handkerchief handy.

You want to hear something funny! I was a drool Monster and had problems with my throat before being put on Mirapex...mind you if i could keep my doctor from prescribing me mirapex all those years ago i would have because that rx had tried to do me in a couple of times. I can answer any question you have about mirapex and neuroleptic malignant syndrome or DAWs
