                                While excessive salivation, also known as ptyalism or hypersalivation, is a common symptom in cases of poisoning or specific medical conditions, a direct causal link to a singular vitamin deficiency is uncommon. However, some nutritional shortfalls, particularly those affecting the nervous system, can indirectly contribute to issues that result in drooling.
