Increased saliva with w/d Vics

Has anyone else had the symptom of increased saliva and a burning sensation inside the mouth and tongue with w.d. from Vicodin?  I had this after stopping and it lasted about 5 weeks.  Finally is gone!   I had tapered from the Vicodin and this is day 44 without any pills.  I read that the increased saliva is from the parasympathic that had been deadened from the narc and without the vicodin it woke up!!   This is a note to anyone that if they have this symptom it will go away.  I read clonidine would help but I did not contact my m.d.

I also find that interesting. I didn't experience that, that I know of. But then again, I was way too consumed with the restlessness, aches, depression, etc.. to even notice! LOL!
