what do you drink for a dry mouth?

[casual_t]

Plain old water. I also found that sucking on a cough drop while vaping helps (as long as you don't have a flavored liquid that wouldn't taste good with it).

LOL Hellen what is that little guy spitting out when he comes out of the coffee cup? That is hilarious

Coffee! That's why I never have dry mouth *grin*

 

[Laurie Oldfield]

lol that's hilarious

 

[Kate51]

I don't know how you find those things, but sure love it when you do Hellen.
But spitting coffee at my house is 'grounds' for divorce, or at least a good cuffing alongside the 'bean'! Ha
I'm sitting here sipping my Columbian dark roast, of course!

I drink coffee all day until around 6:30pm and finally eat something. Then it's plain good old water.

 

[joshuawinkk]

I love Red Bull...

If I am vaping a lot before I go to bed, I wake up with serious cotton mouth.

been there

 

[Hellen A. Handbasket]

Ahhhh good to see others do the INE diet Skyler. (Caffeine and Nicotine)

I drink coffee all day and have to remind myself to eat. BAD

LOL Kate...BAD coffee jokes. Oh, ignore me... too much coffee and I'm really bitter.

hahahahaha

Ahh! Some other coffee drinkers. For me: a small pot of black caffeinated stuff to get started in the morning ... a large pot of black decaf to get through the day ... and a small decaf pot with flavored creamer in the evening. Coffee, PVs: life is good!

As for the OP's other question: Do the smoke quitting "banners give a somewhat accurate calculation as far as how much money you saved?" Nope! Not in net savings. They don't take into account how much we spend on vaping. It is possible to spend half as much on vaping as one spent on smoking (e.g., by avoiding mods, staying with one e-cig model, and just buying parts and inexpensive e-liquid), but very few of us do. I have really restrained myself (due to financial necessity, not great will power) and I've kept it to about 3/4 of what I spent on the cancer sticks.

But saving money is not why I vape. It is just one of my two rationalizations; the other is health. The reason I vape is because I love it so.

While, I too, enjoy coffee, it actually exacerbates my cotton mouth. However, I'll definitely check out the Halls Refresh drops.

 

[awasasi]

I'm new to vaping (about two weeks) and have been more thirsty than my usual thirsty self. fwiw I've found it helps a whole lot to use the Listerine as suggested in this forum.

 

[HawaiiBoi]

I am having the same thing, I just make sure I have any drink next to me when I vape. I'm going to try the halls refresh!

 

[Bill77094]

I go through about 2 pitchers of freshly brewed decaffeinated iced tea every day. I still get my share of caffeine in the morning with 1/2 pot of coffee.

 

[Ninotschka]

water for me too but when i'm out and about, i carry some tic tacs with me, they take the edge off the dry mouth a bit, until i get to a pub

you should drink 2 litres of water a day anyway, so vaping helps with that too. i went from a barely 200ml water intake to a 2.5 litre water intake a day. mind you, i spend more time on the loo than i used to as well...

 

[crashtestjeep]

Water and Trident layers work great for me

thats just it, water. its best but the crazy thing is, the more water you drink, the thirstier you feel. This is bc its also flushing ur system and working ur body a lil more inside, so even tho u know ur NOT dehydrated, ur body is saying more, more!!

Drink the water, crystal lite, w/e it is you like...your doing everything rt. The effect eill wear off maybe but for me I never got that effect...Im ALWAYS thirsty lol...but then again I drink around 3 gallons of water a day at least! I constantly have a drink in hand or by my side at all times

but in retrospect, its great for ur body!!!!

Sugar free hard candies are always a good thing to keep around too

 

[whiskey]

I drink plenty of water and crystal light, but it does not help for me, what I did find that helped is called Refresh, it is made by Halls. It is just a hard candy like drop that moistens your mouth....and they taste great
It is not a med BTW it is just for dry mouth.

Sugar Substitutes Will Make The Mouth Dryer Per Dentist

 

[vip0802]

wow, thanks for all the suggestions everyone! i'm currently enjoying a nice cup of Lipton's Vanilla Caramel Truffle tea (i needed the extra pyramid bag) with an English Toffee vape. yum! unfortunately, i still have a bit of dry mouth though.

i'm off to get some Halls Refresh!

 

[Dane]

Cognac

 

[Greg558]

I myself haven't experienced this.. if anything my mouth kept more dry smoking analogs than vaping.. Since vapaing i honestly haven't felt as thirsty, my wife was getting worried about me actually dehydrating.. i guess its the switch from analog to vaping ( it effects everyone different) so i purposely drink alot of fluids just to make sure i don't dehydrate..lol

 

[scheherezade]

I'm a coffee fiend, which shouldn't really help, but seems to. The dry mouth has gotten a bit better over time. I'm just happy that I can breath again!

 

[redgirl]

I have been vaping since November and never got serious dry mouth until yesterday. It's like, no matter how much water I drink, it will not go away. I did go out and get some of those Halls Refresh, and they're helping. I got the sugar free Juicy Strawberry flavor. Went to Target and that's the only flavor they had. Anyone know if they have different flavors? I also noticed that while in the toothpaste aisle, they had mouthwash specifically for dry mouth. I didn't buy any, but I might if this damn cottonmouth doesn't go away. Haven't had this bad of cottonmouth since high school
