maybe i should look to see if the gel (any brand) would be cheaper than the lozenges.
I buy a years supply of GC Dry Mouth Gel for about $75. (Xyligel seems to be a bit cheaper.) How does $75 compare to Xylimelts?
eta: looks like, if i ordered strictly through amazon, would cost $73. not counting tax.

i'm just not organized enough to do that. i'm more of the panic at the last minute type and go to the drugstore. and i'm pretty sure i'm spending more than $73 per year.
If Amazon offers an item as a subscription item, you can have it automatically show up at a given interval (monthly, every 2 months, etc.). You don't have to be organized to do that, and you're less likely to run out of the item. If you use Amazon regularly and have Amazon Prime, you even save on shipping.

Just a suggestion to avoid last minute panics and drugstore outages.

Xylitol is toxic to cats and dogs

If you have pets, be careful that they do not get into your products containing xylitol. It can kill them.
