How to Counteract Anticholinergic Effects of ADs

Posted by dannen on October 28, 2003, at 21:03:05

How does one counteract the anticholinergic effects of ADs--especially ones causing constipation or dry mouth (e.g., TCAs)?

Exercise and increasing fiber and water intake helps, but are there any other aids? I have read online that oyal jelly helps, but is that just a plug from a health product rep? What works for people?

The dry mouth is a real bother, too. I have seen artificial saliva in the drug store. Does it work? Any gums that work well? I guess I'll stick to lemon water.

Any comments will be greatly appreciated.
