Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19957670

Anethole trithione or anetholtrithione is a drug used in the treatment of dry mouth. Anethole trithione is a bile secretion-stimulating drug that restores salivation. It is listed in the U.S. National Cancer Institute's Dictionary of Cancer Terms as being studied in the treatment of cancer. Anethol has also been identified as a treatment for improving medium and severe dry eye symptoms. The mechanism of action for the chemopreventive and xerostomia properties have not been fully elucidated.
