Totally got that on clozapine. A lot of people do - almost all in fact.
I think there are some meds that can help

It happens to me also, been on Clozapine for over 5 years now and it hasn’t changed… I have some Atropine droplets to dry up the mouth but I am not a fan of fixing one issue with another band-aid. Also tried the towel trick on the pillow. Best of luck!

My doctor prescribed a low dose of hydroxazine(sp?) That at 150mg of clozapine stopped my drooling.
