Description and Uses
Anethole trithione is a choleretic drug that can be effective in the treatment of dry mouth, including drug-induced xerostomia. Research suggests that Anethole trithione may exert its therapeutic effects by acting on the alpha-CGRP nerves in the salivary glands, which in turn promotes salivary secretion[1-2].
