Cevimeline hydrochloride(Cat No.:I000332)is a medication primarily used to treat symptoms of dry mouth (xerostomia) in patients with Sjögren’s syndrome, an autoimmune disorder. It is a muscarinic receptor agonist, specifically targeting M3 receptors in the salivary glands, which stimulates saliva production. By enhancing salivation, cevimeline helps alleviate dryness and discomfort. It is taken orally and is generally well-tolerated, although side effects may include sweating, nausea, and headache. Cevimeline is marketed under the brand name Evoxac and is an alternative to other treatments like pilocarpine for dry mouth management.
