[Dysphagia] adaptive cup



Dyskinesia (ataxia), dysphagia, amnesia, dysarthria: NEURONTIN.
Dyskinesia (EPS, akathesia), dysphagia: Clonidine, celexa, allegra (in some). 
The others affect swallowing adversely because of xerostomia.
Neurontin is the worst for many types of severely adverse side effects, especially in the elderly. This is a cocktail of meds that makes little sense.
