A journal article published in the International Journal of Language and Communication Disorders in 2001 found that when people with Parkinson's Disease used a swallow reminder their saliva management improved. (Drooling in Parkinsons' disease: a novel speech and language therapy intervention. Int J Lang Commun Disord. 2001;36 Suppl:282-7. Marks L, Turner K, O'Sullivan J, Deighton B, Lees A).

Swallow Prompt can be used during normal device usage (excluding phone calls) and when your device is in standby mode (screen off) in order to preserve battery charge.
