Excess saliva.

Since a year of two my sound has become more and more "spitty". I know now that this has to do with excess saliva due to Parkinson disease. The medicins I found (Glycopyrronium, Biperideen) to diminish the saliva production do have severe side effects so I doubt to take them. I do use Levodopa. Does anyone of you know a solution?

Canabis is known to cause "dry mouth" as a side effect...
Lots of players enjoy it for other reasons too.
It doesn't seem to have any effect on coordination, but for some reason I can no longer smoke it on a gig without getting those dreaded "Deer in the headlights" moments...
