Why Do Antihistamine Drugs Cause Tooth Cavities?

[A.R]

Anyone else experience these bad effects? How to counter? I'm guessing high calcium diet along with k2 supplementation

I didn't know they did.

Antibiotics do. Are you getting them confused

 

[Pointless]

They cause dry mouth, which leads to tooth decay.

I have experienced it in the past, or maybe it was because of the drug I used (ceririzine) which is toxic to the liver (thus causing the decay)

Why do antibiotics cause cavities?

Yes maybe the ones with anticholinergic effects dry mouth and so damage teeth?

I havent heard antibiotics cause decay!

Histidine is very "secretory", meaning it increases secretion of bodily fluids.

Men have higher levels, and men also have less tooth decay (saliva secretion) and crave more protein dense foods (stomach acid secretion).

I'm not sure what exactly the connection is with histamine.
