Daniella,
I just started new blood pressure meds, two of them. So I took one in the morning and one in the evening. The one in the evening was like pulling someone's finger out of the dam. My nose ran like an escaped convict. To the point where I would just stuff a big piece of tissue up there. It seemed to taper off after a week or so, but i was supposed to be taking two of those, one in morn one evening, so I added the morning one and instantly my nose was running like a fire hose. Not what I needed. My bp was being pretty good so I stopped taking the morning one. But maybe that is why the dry mouth, because those pills just suck every bit of moisture out of you, in my case, some of it just expelled out my nose not my bladder. I now take two pill with the 'dry mouth' warning. I hate gum, or rather I hate how I forget I'm chewing gum and look like a cow chewing a cud. and I can't do sugarless because of the aspartame. I try drinking water, but in Church, or other places gum is a necessity.
