Hi, while posting my question here, I was actually trying out on my own using one of those off the shelves 'Omron' electronic pulse massager model:HV-F123.

I want to believe any electronic massager that produce enough current through the pads. (I am not sure how to upload picture, otherwise I will do that to make thing simple). that can produce enough current to stimulate the whole palm should do the same trick.

I placed the 2 'sticky' pads one each in my palm and set the intensity power to a level I feel acceptable. (This thing operates with 2 AAA batteries, therefore the voltage is 3 volts max). I repeat the cycle for 4 times (each cycle last 15 mins) for 10 days. Hey I can feel my sweating is gone!

Yesterday is Good Friday and today is Saturday here in Singapore. I usually sweat more when I go to work. Come Monday, I would have a better feel if this thing helps.

Will give you guys some updates next week.

Hi all, I have the real test today. Under normal condition, my sweating improve to about 50% but under stress, only slightly. Maybe 20-30%

It is either I continue to treat it to see there are furhter improvement or to consider placing the electrodes into 2 seperate tub of water.

As I will be going away for a week, I will take a break from the treatment and continue with I get back.

Will continue to update and do give me your suggestions if any.

Hi, I took a break when I went away for a week. I didn't sweat because I generally don't sweat when I am in temperate countries and the weather is cooling.

Now that I am back home (Singapore is all year round hot and humid), I am starting to sweat again. (Of course when I said sweat, I am referring to palm sweating). I decide to do away with the sticky pads and put the electrode prode into 2 tray filled with tap water.

The Omron macbine does create tingling electric effect on my palms. With only 3 volts, I am not sure if the current is effective. I have been working on this for the past 5-6 days and will continue for at least 10 days. I heard from other users of iontophoresis machine it usually takes about 10 sessions to achieve effect.

So far, I am still sweat like hell Embarassed

Has anyone here heard of Hidro fugal at all and tried it.
It´s not prescription, but the only thing I´ve found so farwith ammonium chloride in.
Is it worth trying, or should I just go straight to GP for something on prescription?

I´ll let you know how it goes.
I´ve used it a couple of nights and have noticed a great improvement so far.
Do you know of any creams at all containing aluminium chloride that can be used under arms?

Hello I am new here. I am an 18 year old Filipino nursing student. I have moderate facial hyperhidrosis and mild hyperhidrosis on my hands and feet. I had took driclor from the dermatologist's prescription and applied it on my pals, feet and especially on my under arm. It works well on the under arms but not enough on my palms and feet.

I cannot apply driclor on my scalp because I have a lot of hair to consider on my head. I stopped applying driclor on the scalp on the 2nd nioght I bought driclor. I currently having a good time on my under arm state because it do not sweat a lot. My face is my main problem.

I would like to use any aluminum chloride solution worthy to use on the scalp.

I obviously voted for the topical anti perspirants.
