Abstract

Difficulty swallowing saliva or its excessive production may be problematic for some patients. The resulting oral dribbling is often embarrassing. Three patients were admitted for hospice care complaining of oral dribbling. Each patient was given nebulized scopolamine hydrobromide which helped lessen the dribbling.
