Sublingual administration of atropine eye drops for treating sialorrhea after stroke: A randomized controlled trial
The sublingual administration of 1% atropine eye drops three times per day can reduce the degree of sialorrhea to an extent more than that achieved with routine rehabilitation training; thus, this approach is effective, safe, and minimally invasive for treating sialorrhea after stroke.
