Methamphetamine usage decreases salivary production (xerostomia). How does this affect the digestive system? – The oral cavity is part of the digestive system
Methmouth: Methamiphetamine is a psychostimulant and severe usage of this drug causes activation of alphaarergic receptors followed by vasoconstriction at salivary glands result in low salivation that causes dry mouth. This salivation has a lot of impact on carbohydrate digestion as it has low amylase to digest the sugar moieties thereby salivary absence further leading to increased acidity in the mouth associate with dental caries and enamel damage.
Digestion of carbohydrates is completely reduced in the oral cavity with rise acidity and thereby pyloric and fucndic splicnters cannot move the food bolus into the gastic area for further diagestion. This improper digestion is leading to constipation and reduced glucose levels in the body followed by hypoglycemia.

Il. PARTS OF THE DIGESTIVE TRACT A. ORAL CAVITY After ingestion, the physical breakdown of solid foods (mechanical digestion) begins in the oral cavity (mouth). Describe how food is mechanically digested in the oral cavity. Include a discussion of how the teeth, tongue, and saliva work together to convert solid food into a moist, semi-solid mass of food called a bolus. Example: think of how a hard, dry saltine cracker is converted into a moist ball (bolus) in the mouth...
