pubmed:abstractText |
Changes in subjective sensations due to xerostomia before and after administration of Xialine, a xanthan gum-based saliva substitute, were evaluated in 30 patients with radiation-induced xerostomia using the QLQ-H&N35. Xerostomia in general decreased with both Xialine and placebo to almost the same degree. A trend was seen for Xialine to improve problems with speech and senses.
