There are a lot of bipolar disorder medications that can cause a dry mouth- anti depressants, mood stabilizers and anti psychotics are equal opportunity employers when it comes to side effects.\u00a0 Our bodies are so different – which means that some of us will have a dry mouth with Tegretol while others will have eye problems- but over all, dry mouth caused by bipolar disorder medications is very common.<\/p>\n
My mother, who is on Lamictal, found an excellent product that she says helps a lot. It’s called Breath RX.\u00a0 Those the products are for bad breath, they actually help moisten the mouth more than any other product. They really work.<\/p>\n
MANY people with bipolar disorder have trouble with their teeth. I know that I do! One theory states that our mouths get too dry from some med side effects and our teeth get brittle.\u00a0 These breath mints can help as they keep the teeth hydrated! At least that is the idea!<\/p>\n
I doubt that this company ever thought they would make a product that helps people with medication side effects!<\/p>\n
Here is the link. My mom gets them in stores.<\/p>\n
