Dream - Fasting causes someone to experience dehydration due to lack of fluid intake. Lack of body fluids can also make the mouth feel dry. Especially if Sahabat Dream experiences a sore throat. Nevertheless, it turns out that dry mouth can be caused by various other factors. So, you don't need to be surprised if your mouth still feels dry even if you are not fasting.
The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "Dry mouth or xerostomia itself is a condition caused by a lack of saliva production. If left untreated, dry mouth can also cause other problems, such as tooth decay, gum inflammation, and even tooth loss."
Based on the testimony of Internal Medicine Specialist, Ika Devi, there are several causes of dry mouth. One of them is the consumption of high blood pressure medication. "If you are using high blood pressure medications such as captopril, ACE inhibitors, CCB, amlodipine, and so on, and you feel that your gums are becoming dry, it is advisable to consult a doctor. It could be the cause," said Ika.
Apart from high blood pressure medication, anti-nausea medication or nerve treatment can also cause dry mouth. "For example, Parkinson's medication, seizure medication, antidepressant medication".
"Certainly, you should consume more water," Ika suggests. If you are not able to get used to drinking more water, try chewing sugar-free gum to avoid negative effects on other organs if consumed too often. Both methods mentioned above can stimulate excessive saliva production, so the mouth doesn't feel too dry."
When the mouth continues to feel dry even though you have drunk a lot of water and chewed gum intensively, consult a dentist.
Friends of Dream can also consult with doctors who treat other conditions, such as hypertension, and nerve or digestive disorders, to find the right solution for dry mouth. You may ask for recommendations for medication without uncomfortable side effects to make it easier to consume regularly.
"Besides consulting with a doctor, do not forget to apply a clean and healthy lifestyle to prevent dental, oral, or other body area problems, so that Sahabat Dream can still feel comfortable during activities."
