For those of you who have had dry throat

[Variety202]

I woke up this morning and my throat was a little sore and dry. About how long did it take for the dry throat to go away?

Soon i hope

I think hydration is the key. When I drink a glass of water before bed, I'm ok...if I forget, I still wake up with a dry throat

mmm, happened to me this morning too.

My sore throat was pretty bad for the first few days. (I was a chain-vaper my first few days.) I don't remember exactly when it went away, but I think it started to get better a few days into vaping, then pretty much gone after a week.

Like Shimmy suggested, drink lots of water. It really does help. It not only soothes your throat, but it helps rehydrate you. I'm not sure why, but e-smoking seems to dehydrate me.

its been a month and i still wake up coughing or in the middle of mysleep! But its been better, i keep a thermos of cool water near my bed so i'll sip on that every now and then, that helps

I remember someone suggesting gargling with cola before bed, the phosphoric acid will rinse the PG or VG clear.

I haven't tried it at night, but I think my mouth and throat do feel better after a swig of Pepsi.

The first day I took a table spoon of honey. Its good for coating your throat. I read the "side effects" thread, and after I vape, I immediately drink something. (or drink during my vape session) I took a cranberry capsule as well, to help with the detox process.

But I recommend honey or you can go to traditionalmedicinals.com and get their "Throat Coat" tea. That stuff is AWESOME. (If you are in the US, you can go to Whole Foods, Kroger, or any store that has a naturals section. They usually carry it)

Data point: I haven't noticed any dry throat as a result of vaping. PG and VG are both humectants though, so hydration makes sense to counter that effect.
