NATURAL REMEDIES
14. Some alterations in daily activity and lifestyle
• Armpit shields - pads worn in the armpit to protect a garment from
perspiration.
• Clothing - certain synthetic fibers, such as nylon, may worsen
symptoms. Loose clothing is better.
• Shoes - synthetic materials are more likely to worsen symptoms.
Natural materials, such as leather, are recommended.
• Socks - some socks are better at absorbing moisture, such as thick, soft
ones made of natural fibers.
15. • If you sweat excessively only from your armpits, heavy-duty
antiperspirant is a great option. Almost every deodorant and
antiperspirant brand on the market has extra-strength and clinical-
strength options. These products contain 10 percent to 20 percent
aluminum chloride hexahydrate, which plug the sweat ducts.
ANTIPERSPIRANT
16. MEDICATIONS
• Anticholinergics drugs, such as Glycopyrrolate and beta
blockers are the medications most commonly used to treat
excessive sweat.
• Anti-cholinergics help prevent the stimulation of sweat
glands. Beta-blockers or benzodiazepines may help reduce
stress-related sweating
17. • These medications inhibit the transmission of
parasympathetic nerve impulses. Patients generally notice an
improvement in symptoms within about 2 weeks.
• Though they have some side effects. Therefore, they can,
however, be useful for those people who want to
temporarily treat their facial sweating in order to prevent
discomfort or embarrassment at an important event.
18. • IONTOPHORESIS
• This procedure uses electricity to temporarily turn off the sweat glands.
It is most effective for sweating of the hands and feet.
• The hands and feet are submerged in a bowl of water. A painless
electric current is passed through the water.
• Most patients need two to four 20-30 minute treatments.
19.
20. • BOTOX
• Many people have success with Botox or to treat hyperhidrosis.
Small doses of purified botulinum toxin injected into the underarm
temporarily block the nerves that stimulate sweating.
• Botox is 80-90 percent effective, but you need to get repeat
injections every six months to keep sweat away. Botox injections
block the nerves that trigger the sweat glands. Patients with
hyperhidrosis may need several injections for effective results
21.
22. LASER
• The laser uses microwave energy to create heat to destroy sweat glands
under the arm, so the effects are long-lasting.
• The treatment is done using local anesthesia only.
• Two treatments spaced 3 months apart are recommended to achieve long-
lasting reduction in sweating. Currently, this treatment is only available for
use in the underarms.
