Reply:Anticholonergic drugs are great for this. Also, beta-blockers work well, especially if you have anxiety.
Reply:Antiperspirants and deodorants :





The aim of an antiperspirant is to decrease the amount of sweating by creating a plug in the acrosyringium. The plug is made of aluminum salts.





Deodorants, on the other hand are products aimed at decreasing the odor with an antibacterial agent or masking it with a perfume.


Topical anticholinergic medications:





Topical glycopyrrolate as 0.5% aqueous solution has been reported also to control HH of the forehead.





Aluminum chlorhydrate:





Present in most antiperspirants available over the counter. Its concentration is higher in antiperspirants than in deodorants. Among the aluminum salts, aluminum chloride is the most effective followed by aluminum chlorhydrate / zinc compounds and finally aluminum chlorhydrate used alone.





Aluminum chloride hexahydrate in an alcoholic solution:





Aluminum chloride hexahydrate is available as a 20% alcoholic solution Drysol® and at 6% concentration under the name Xerac ac®. Aluminum chloride hexahydrate has to be used in a distinctive way. The armpits, hands and feet must be thoroughly washed and blow dried before its application. The solution is applied under occlusion with Cellophane paper in resistant cases. Gloves may be used for the hands and plastic bags for the feet. Occlusion is kept overnight. This procedure is repeated 2 to 3 nights per week. Irritation is a common side effect. Stinging and burning sensation are common at the beginning but may subside after a while.





Aluminum Chloride Hexahydrate in a salicylic acid gel base:





IIn 1978, Aluminum Chloride Hexahydrate in a salicylic acid gel base was first used in a middle aged woman suffering from axillary HH on the verge of getting a surgery to get rid of her axillary glands after failing to respond to Drysol under occlusion. The outcome was impressive. Her surgery has been cancelled and over a 100 similar cases were referred to me during that same year. A similar extemporaneous formulation of 15% aluminum chloride in a salicylic acid gel could now be obtained without a prescription at any pharmacy in Canada www.hydrosalgel.ca





The extemporaneous formulation of 35% Aluminum chloride in a Salicylic Acid Gel for the treatment of palmar %26amp;/or plantar hyperhidrosis could be prepared as follows:
