Difficulty Swallowing / Dry Mouth
For people who have difficulty swallowing, also known as dysphagia, we stock a range of products that can help with some of the symptoms and the problems that arise from it.
We have ranges of thickened - low volume - complete nutrition - products, in interesting flavours to help keep the body weight of the patient up and in addition we stock a number of artificial saliva products to alleviate the discomfort of dry mouth.
