Increased salivation can be described as the production and excretion of excess saliva within the mouth, which may also be caused by decreased clearance of saliva. This can contribute to drooling if there is an inability to keep the mouth closed or difficulty in swallowing the excess saliva, which can lead to excessive spitting.

Increased salivation is often accompanied by other coinciding effects such as excessive yawning, watery eyes, runny nose, and increased phlegm production. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of psychedelic tryptamine compounds, such as psilocybin, 4-AcO-DMT, and 4-HO-MET.
