Excessive saliva and drooling

I have been diagnosed with PD and have problems with excessive saliva and drooling. What can I do about that?
A
People who have PD frequently report the problems you describe with excessive saliva and drooling. There has been controversy about whether the root cause of this problem is more saliva than usual or less frequent and less effective swallowing or a combination of both. Speech-language pathologists can assess and treat swallowing disorders. The best course of action would be to consult with your physician to describe your problem and request a swallow evaluation with a speech-language pathologist
