I had the same problem. It helped me to ensure I got all my fluids in because I was constantly drinking trying to get rid of it. I think it was just a way my body reacted to the change. It went away for me about 2 1/2 week post op. At this time I was able to get all my fluids in so I think that helped to get rid of the constant cotton mouth. I say just drink as often as possible, I also brushed my teeth several times a day to try to get rid of it.
