What's the difference between ptyalagogue and sialogogue?
Ptyalagogue
Definition:
Example Sentences:
(1) Serial measurements during treatment with ptyalagogues supported the evidence that this measuring method is a valuable instrument in the diagnosis of salivation disorders.
Sialogogue
Definition:
(n.) An agent which promotes the flow of saliva.
Example Sentences:

(2) A larger body of literature deals with attempts using many different sialogogues to stimulate salivary function in a variety of conditions.
(3) Non-nutritive intense sweeteners may affect plaque pH by their sialogogue effects.
(4) In the rats on the liquid diet, it was found that the dose needed to evoke a just perceptible secretion of saliva was smaller, that the secretion started earlier and continued over a longer time period, and further that the amount of saliva secreted expressed per gland weight in response to submaximal doses of the sialogogue drug was bigger when compared with the rats on the pelleted bulk diet.
(5) The primary axiom is, "Treat the gland, not the stone," and the essential aspects of emergency medical management are antibiotics, sialogogues, warm compresses, mechanical stimulation, and appropriate referral to an otolaryngologist.
(6) After 2 weeks of Cd administration significant changes in the secretory response to these sialogogues were observed.
