  4. Writing consent documents (part two) Study purpose This study is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of an oral pharmacological agent for the treatment of xerostomia.

  5. Writing consent documents (part two) Study purpose This study is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of an oral pharmacological agent for the treatment of xerostomia. To this end, subjects will be asked to self-administer 25 mg nozerost or placebo twice daily (a.m. and p.m.) over a six-week period, and will record dry mouth symptoms—indicating their severity on a five-point scale—in a daily journal.

To this end, subjects will be asked to self-administer 25 mg nozerost or placebo twice daily (a.m. and p.m.) over a six-week period, and will record dry mouth symptoms—indicating their severity on a five-point scale—in a daily journal. Xerostomia has in past research been found to be prevalent among approximately 24% of U.S. adult females and approximately 18% of U.S. adult males up to 88 years of age.

To this end, subjects will be asked to self-administer 25 mg nozerost or placebo twice daily (a.m. and p.m.) over a six-week period, and will record dry mouth symptoms—indicating their severity on a five-point scale—in a daily journal. Xerostomia has in past research been found to be prevalent among approximately 24% of U.S. adult females and approximately 18% of U.S. adult males up to 88 years of age. Available data suggest a link between low salivary flow and xerostomia in adults toward the lower end of the age spectrum studied, whereas a more complex constellation of factors (including but not limited to low salivary flow) in older and elderly adults may contribute to xerostomic symptoms.

  29. Study purpose This study is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of an oral pharmacological agent for the treatment of xerostomia. To this end, subjects will be asked to self-administer 25 mg nozerost or placebo twice daily (a.m. and p.m.) over a six-week period, and will record dry mouth symptoms—indicating their severity on a five-point scale—in a daily journal. Xerostomia has in past research been found to be prevalent among approximately 24% of U.S. adult females and approximately 18% of U.S. adult males up to 88 years of age. Available data suggest a link between low salivary flow and xerostomia in adults toward the lower end of the age spectrum studied, whereas a more complex constellation of factors (including but not limited to low salivary flow) in older and elderly adults may contribute to xerostomic symptoms. Xerostomia is a known side effect of a range of prescription and over-the-counter medications, and is also associated with various medical conditions, such as diabetes and Parkinson’s disease. Development of a topical anti-xerostomic formula comparable in its effects with the oral agent under examination in this study is not currently foreseen by the researchers. Study purpose Dry mouth (xerostomia) affects many adults in the United States. It often occurs as a side effect of medicine. Certain health conditions, such as diabetes and Parkinson’s disease, can also cause dry mouth. In this study, we want to find out how helpful a drug called nozerost might be in treating dry mouth. Procedures If you decide to take part in this study, we’ll give you a six-week supply of pills to take at home. The pills will be either nozerost (25 milligrams each) or a placebo. A placebo is a fake drug. It looks exactly like the real drug but contains no medicine. We’ll use a random method (like a flipping a coin) to decide whether to give you the real nozerost or the placebo. You’ll have no way of knowing which one you receive. You’ll take two pills every day for the next six weeks. You should take one pill when you get up in the morning and the other pill around dinnertime. We’ll also ask you to write down your dry mouth symptoms every day in a journal. Next to each symptom, you’ll rate its severity on a scale of 1 to 5.
