The Effectiveness of Acupuncture in Drug-Induced Hyposalivation

Hyposalivation is a lifelong problem in persons who take drugs and despite extensive research, there is a limited help. Acupuncture is known to be helpful in irradiated patients due to the head and neck malignancies, however to our knowledge there are no data with regard to the effectiveness of acupuncture in patients with drug-induced hyposalivation. Unstimulated salivary flow rate (USFR) and quality of life assessment scale (OHIP- CRO 14) before and after acupuncture treatment was determined in 24 persons with dry mouth. Acupuncture was performed by use of needles (0, 16x10mm) inserted on the following points ; Shen Man, Point Zero, Autonomic Point, Thirst Point, Salivary Gland F on both ears. Twenty three patients were instructed to use water (in a spray bottle) as much as they needed. Significant increase in salivary flow rate after treatment with acupuncture was found. No significant difference in USFR was found after treatment with water in the spray bottle. Significantly increased OHIP score was found after treatment with acupuncture and water. Drug-induced hyposalivation can be successfully treated by acupuncture. Treatment with water increased quality of life but not salivary flow rate in patients with drug- induced hyposalivation.
