Can Extreme Fatigue And Forgetfulness Be After Effects Of Biotene Mouth Spray?

Mom has been using Biotene Mouth Spray for a few weeks now because of her dry mouth. Yesterday she was so abnormally tired during the day and was so confused last night (Sat) at 10 pm that she already thought it was today (10 am on Sunday). Could she be having a drug reaction to the Biotene?

Hi..
Thanks for the query..

As per your complain Biotene mouthwash is a specialised mouthwash for dry mouth or xerostomia patients containing Methylcellulose ,Xylitol and other ingredients but it is not seen to cause such side effects of fatigue and forgetfullness..

I would therefore suggest you that you should consult a Medicine Specialist and get her evaluated as the symptoms that she is facing can be due to some other conditions and not biotene mouthwash..

However, if there is a doubt you can stop making her use the mouth spray..

Give her a nutritious diet and sufficient rest..
Avoid stress and drink plenty of water..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
