EVOXAC (CEVIMELINE)
Evoxac Description
Evoxac or generic Cevimeline is a prescription drug your doctor may recommend if you have been diagnosed with Sjogren’s syndrome, an autoimmune disease that affects your body’s ability to produce sufficient saliva or tears. Having a dry mouth is not merely a nuisance, it can cause tooth decay, mouth sores, stones in your salivary glands or infection, and fungal or bacterial infections. Many are not aware of how essential saliva is! And tears are just as important for keeping your eyes moist so you are not affected by dry, gritty feeling eyes. The generic alternative is not manufactured by the company that makes the brand product.
Evoxac is a cholinergic agonist that binds to the muscarinic receptors that affect your exocrine glands. These include salivary and sweat glands. This action encourages an increase in the production of secretions so your mouth will no longer be as dry as a desert. Your tear output is also increased and provides relief from the constant feeling of having sand in your eyes. You will be also instructed to drink extra fluid while taking Evoxac.
Conditions Treated by Evoxac
Sjogren’s syndrome is classed as either primary or secondary. Primary Sjogren’s syndrome is not a result of another condition you have, while Secondary Sjogren’s syndrome could develop if you have Lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. Women appear to be more likely to be affected by this condition and may experience vaginal dryness as well as dry eye and mouth.
It’s important to visit your dentist to see that you are not at risk for permanent damage to your teeth, as well as see your ophthalmologist for monitoring the effects of dry eye. If you are also experiencing joint pain and stiffness, or muscles aches, ask your doctor about non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs to help ease your pain.
Before You Take Evoxac
Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are breast feeding before you start taking Evoxac so you are aware of any risks to your unborn or nursing baby. To determine if Evoxac is safe for you to take, explain other medical conditions and allergies you have to your doctor and list all current OTC and Rx drugs you take, including herbal remedies and dietary or vitamin supplements.
Warnings for Evoxac
Until you know how Evoxac will affect you, avoid driving, operating machinery, or other tasks that require you to be alert and have clear vision. Do not drink alcohol while taking Evoxac as this could increase the risk of side effects.
Possible Side Effects of Evoxac
