Hi there,
Im new to this forum, but hope I can help contribute.
Without getting into detailed past of different products I have tried for my hyperhidrosis, I have for the last year been using a product called (Secure topical glycopyrrolate 1.5%) I have not been able to find this product anywhere but buying online from a CANADIAN pharmacy, and being im in southern CA i dont know what the exact laws are on this, but I have not had any problems so far.
The topical formula come in a small sealed cylindar with about 50 or so wipes in it. The wipes look just like those acne, face cleaning wipes you buy at the pharmacy. They usually last me about 3 months before i need to order more. I will order more when i have about 10 wipes left becuase it takes about a week and a half to get to me.
I have been very pleased with the outcome of these, not 100% perfect but i have not seen anything better out there.
I have a couple questions though, even if you have not used them you may be able to help me out. So im not any sorts of doctor but my commense sense as a 27 year old tells me that if you use a product of the same kind for a long period of time to treat something that your body will learn how to become immune to it eventually? I dont know if this is true with our sweat glands on our face but what i have been doing is only using the wipes when i have to. If i know im not going to be in any kind of uncomfortable social environment for a week or so i wont take them for a week, but if i know i have something coming up i will make sure to start using the wipes abotu 3 or 4 days before. The problem i run into is the days when im not using the wipes and unexpectedly im thown into a social environment that makes me sweat. So my dilema is do i just use the wipes non stop all the time, or will my swat glands become immune to the wipes? any advice will help me. They do sell different potencies of the product, it comes i 1%, 1.5%, 2% and i think a 3%. i currently use a 1.5% but what happens when i have to start getting a stronger and stronger dosage, well i think you get my point.
So any advice on this will really help.
Also Im here to talk to if anyone wants to share stories, remedies, advice, questions, this has not been an easy thing to go through, I started getting my sweat really noticabbly just over the last 2 years, im 27 years old, and a producer in Hollywood, where I need to travel and do interviews with movie stars and go to set visits and do interviews with directors and such, so you can imagine what im going through trying to keep myself from sweating when im sitting down in that chair.
Im here to help with whatever i can.
please feel free to email me at jazzone2003@yahoo.com, name your subject line "sweating" so i know your email is not spam.
I will keep up with this forum whenever i can as well.
Thanks Social Phobia World for giving us a meeting point.

Hi Justin,
I don't know for sure if you can become immune to the wipes. What I know is a lot of people take glycopyrrolate in tablet form, and i've never heard of anyone becoming immune to it. I use it in liquid form for my hands (iontophoresis) and it did stop working at one point. However a few months later I started it up again and it works as strong as ever. Maybe the people who made it just changed something. Personally I don't think you'll have a problem. You can always raise the dose as you say but i'd just carry on using it as often as you like.

Hi, no I haven't. I'm not sure how effective it would be.
Your best option is to purchase an iontophoresis device, and if you need to crush robinul tablets into the trays (secure wipes and robinul both contain glycoyrrolate).
