Has anyone tried Cevimeline 30mg Capsules for Sjögren's syndrome? How was your experience?

I've recently been prescribed Cevimeline 30mg Capsules for my Sjögren's syndrome. I'm hoping to get some insights from others who have used this medication. How effective was it for you in relieving dry mouth? What side effects did you experience, if any? Did you find the benefits outweighed the drawbacks? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!

I've been on Cevimeline for a few months and have had no issues. The only thing I noticed is a bit more sweating, but it's nothing I can't handle. It's been a game-changer for my dry mouth!

I switched to Cevimeline after trying other remedies. The best part is that it worked quickly—within a couple of days, I noticed a difference. The side effects were minimal for me, just some sweating. My doctor monitored my blood pressure regularly, which was a good precaution.

I've been on Cevimeline for about six months now. It definitely helps with the dry mouth, but I did experience some stomach upset and diarrhea initially. My doctor adjusted the dosage, and it's been manageable since then. Worth it for the relief it brings.

Be sure to take it with food. It helped me avoid most of the side effects like stomach upset. Plus, it's great for producing more saliva. Finally, I can talk without worrying about my mouth being too dry.

I've had a similar experience. The first few weeks were tough with some headaches and a runny nose, but it got better. Now, I only get occasional stomach cramps, which I can handle. Much better than living with constant dry mouth.

I wish it worked for me. I tried it for a month, but the side effects were too much. I had severe stomach pain and even felt dizzy a few times. Had to switch back to other treatments.

Side effects were minimal for me but the increased saliva was a huge relief! I would recommend this over some of the other medications I've tried for sure.

I read about Cevimeline and it seems to work for dry mouth.. but has anyone experienced trouble with their kidneys? I'm worried about long-term use.

I think the side effects are worth it. I did experience some headaches and dizziness initially, but the relief from dry mouth is fantastic.

I've never heard of Cevimeline. Does anyone know if it’s safe for long-term use? I’m kind of concerned about long-term side effects.
