REPORT

I have been taking calcium 500 mg two times daily and once antoxin tablet for the past one year .I was thinking whether long time use of calcium is some reason of excessive saliva . I tried to check from internet it does not say any side effect of using omnacortil for excessive soliva.
I am afraid that excessive saliva to exist for long time may not lead to some lung problem as the same is swallowed every time when mouth watering is felt.
Using Mouth wash Has help a little and i am experiencing less of mouth watering
,but problem still exists .
Can some one tell what could be some other cause of this and how to reduce .

You should not discontinue the Omnacortil, you should finish taking it as prescribed, it is very important to taper it, as directed, to avoid health complications, since it contains the steroid class medication Prednisolone.

As to the excess saliva, it is hard to say what might be causing it, most medications can cause dry mouth, so your salivary glands might be trying to compensate.

Are you experiencing any other symptoms, such as nausea?
