AquaThirst

AquaThirst is a biotechnology company focused on the development and commercialization of therapeutic solutions for xerostomia, commonly known as dry mouth. Founded on research from the University of Pennsylvania, the company developed a proprietary mucoadhesive delivery system designed to provide sustained oral hydration and relief for patients with salivary gland dysfunction. Its primary product offerings included long-lasting moisturizing discs and specialized formulations for individuals suffering from Sjögren's syndrome or radiation-induced dry mouth. Although the company established early manufacturing and licensing partnerships, it has largely transitioned out of active operations in recent years.
