I'm on some heavy meds that also dry my skin out and made it hard to get a good grip on any pick I tried. Then I met a fellow picker at our Wednesday evening open mic who introduced me to violin bow rosin, scrape the rosin block with a pocket knife to create a little powder, rub your thumb in it and rub your thumb and forefinger together real good, and bobs your uncle. This will keep your pick from slipping or rotating. I can now use any brand pick, presently using prime tone sculpted jazz III XL grip 88 and 1.4 mm picks that no longer move around in my fingers even when I'm playing crabgrass music.
