What Causes Foaming At The Mouth Of A Child?

I just checked on my 7 year old boy, and noticed he is foaming at the mouth in his sleep. This is the first time I ve ever seen it. He does snore, and is on prescription Zyrtec and Singulair. He had a sleep study back in the fall and everything was normal. I shook him awake, sat him up and made him take a sip of water. Should I be concerned?
