How long does each spray provide relief from dry mouth?

I don't usually spray just once. I push the plunger down 2, sometimes 3, times. I get immediate results.

As a previous OASIS user, I can tell you that for me, RAIN provides for a much longer relief. I would imagine that each person would be different depending on the severity of dry mouth. Mine is due to radiation and chemo that all but destroyed my saliva glands. Also, I find that the more I have to speak, the more frequent I would need to respray, but in general, I spray only 2 to 3 times a day plus spraying before going to bed, gets me through the night.

There are 60 dry pads in the jar. Pour the solution from the bottle onto the pads in the jar, and you are ready to go for sixty days! This is a good product, and I can tell a difference in my skin when I stop using it! Hope this helps!

I am happy to answer! I had to go to my husband for help in responding as I buy the XyliMelts for him. He has undergone radiation therapy and chemotherapy for throat cancer. As a result of the treatments he has no functioning salivary glands. Therefore, his mouth and throat are drier than the Sahara. Two XyliMelts keep his oral cavity moist throughout the night. I would think then that one tablet would keep your mouth and throat moist if you have no significant effects on saliva production as my husband does.

I would recommend that you not water for a day or so as the product softens when wet. I think you will find that it is very effective within the first 24-48 hours.

It is a pleasant moisturing liquid, like water, mild lemon flavor. I use about 4 sprays, 0ne in each corner of the mouth. It does not last very long but long enough until I fall asleep. Would plain water do the same?, most likely. I follow the spray with a Biotene gel because the spray runs down to the back of the throat and the effect is very transitory. If dry mouth wakes you up a quick spray solves the problem and I go back to sleep. No different from Biotene spray but a better taste.

1-2 months (at least) depending on the frequency and quantity used. Great product -- it has replaced countless other powders and creams (including prescriptions) we've tried over the years to dry out (and heal) all kinds of stubborn, oozing rashes (and at a fraction of the cost!)

I give it about 10 minutes. My skin is dry, may take longer with skin types that are not dry.

It depends on how often you use the product. I use about three to four sprays per go and that will last me about twenty days of regular use.

Exactly. I have Sjogrens and I take medication. My mouth is constantly dry. I use these all the time. During the day I use them if needed. I highly recommend this product. I can't live without them. Sincerely, Susan

A few minutes at most. Don't let it dry before coming back to rinse. I found it best to work in smaller patches.

It's recommended to use for 5-10 minutes for each treatment; but I've found it'll retain heat for about 20 minutes if applied immediately. (Your body helps it retain some heat)

I have never used the product overnight. I am afraid that I really cannot answer. The total relief time is in about 10 minutes and lasts a total of 1-3 hours.

Not sure exactly, but I would assess several applications. You only use a minute amount of product for each treatment. Should last for quite a while.

I started using these every night when I went to bed.I have had no problem with a dry mouth since. They slowly melt and release enough to help salivation. I have no experience with CPAP , so I can only tell you what they did for me.

I have Sjogren's Syndrome and long ago had the same question. I was told that one could swish for as long as desired. I have been using PBF and before that just the regular Biotene for over 10 years and it is my saving grace for DRY mouth. Hope this helps you. Sharon

Not sure how long it takes to dry..but I typically start seeing results within 8 hrs after application. It doesn't take much. Just a light misting on the area you want to treat. A little bit goes a pretty long way. Ive had good results.

Hi there,The Lozenges will help a little at reducing the amount of the white coating on your tongue. If you need something stronger, I would recommend using the TheraBreath toothpaste as well. Just put a layer of the paste on your tongue and let it set there for about 1-2 minutes then clean off and brush like you normally would. This helps quite a bit to reduce or eliminate the coating.
