Extremely dry mouth on waking up

[Isabelle49]

i have noticed my mouth, throat and nose being extremely dry when waking in the morning. Mouth and throat are so dry I can barely swallow!!! This is not good. Any suggestions.

There is a very easy fix: Drink more water!

vaping can dry you out a tad, so additional water intake can help out. Extra H2O is also good for you and is a nice addition to the healthy life style you've started by quitting smokes.

I also recommend higher VG juices. PG exacerbates dryness.

Drink plenty of water, not juice or coffee/tea etc. but water. Vaping will dehydrate you.

When I wake like that my wife tells me it's because I've been snoring !! Make sure you're properly hydrated last thing at night and ease off vaping last thing at night.

 

[Romano Cheese]

I agree with everyone else. More water

 

[dbrandt01]

Avoid juice, soda and all that. Just drink water throughout the day. I vape all day and right before I sleep. I wake up just fine without a dry mouth.

As those before me have said, increase your water intake. I almost always carry a bottle of water with me along with my vaporizor wherever I go.

Coffee & tea can dehydrate you because of their caffeine content. Juice is fine, and you'll get vitamin C along with the hydration.

Propolyne glycol (pg) and vegetable glycerin (vg) both are humectants, meaning that they naturally attract water to them from the mucous membranes. Hense the dry mouth, throat, and nose when vaping.

If it continues to be a problem for you despite upping your water intake, some people claim that Biotine helps.

Higher VG lower PG juice, I had the same problems, was on 70pg 30vg mix, now on 50/50, problem has gone, plus a smoother smoke, less sore throats.

Thanks so much.

Had the same problem and I do drink lots of water. Higher VG helped a lot.

Hi, Isabelle. I'm sure you've got the "water" message by now, so I won't repeat . Really, just want to welcome you to ECF. It's a great place to hang out for a bit. Lots of friendly folks, eager to help!

One could never vape enough to become dehydrated from vaping. If you are dehydrated you need to get to a hospital...

 

[suprtrkr]

Hi and welcome to the board. By now you've gotten the message about more water, so I won't repeat it.

I'm gonna also go ahead and second the person who mentioned ((( biotene mouthwash )))

it's specifically made to prevent dry mouth...it definitely helps in the morning, but don't eat or drink anything for at least half an hour after using it (though I guess that's generally the rule of thumb after brushing yer teeth in the morning)

 

[The Ocelot]

There is also a Biotene gel you put in your mouth before you go to bed.

 

[WillyZee]

welcome to ECF ... I'm thirsty now

 

[roxynoodle]

Right before I go to bed I drink 12-16oz of water.

 

[Canadian_Vaper]

How long you been vaping? after about a month I started to get the same problem, it took a while but eventually it went away after 2-3 weeks, like others said start drinking more water.

 

[disley]

Get tested for diabetes.

 

[Mpalacioss_]

I always had the same problem, i just drink alot of water before bed and in general
