Got hyperhydrosis of the armpits and have been using driclor which is stopping most of it.

Seen this new thing called Odaban which apprently doesnt sting at night wen u put it on. Wondering if anyones ever used it. Does it work?

Link is below, if no one ever heard of it.

I am 32 years old and had a MAJOR problem with underarm sweat. About 2 years ago I ordered Odaban through the internet. I received it and applied it. No joke, it works great!!! I am simply a "Sweater"
I also recommended to my brother and it works great for him as well.

As a note: Do exactly as the directions tell you. Do not overapply. It WILL WORK! Give it about a week or two and the sweating will completely stop. Now I only have to apply it about once every other month and my sweating is completely gone. I feel so much better.

I have never tried driclor, so I can't compare it to that. But... my under arm sweating was really bad and now it is perfectly fine.

I am still looking for a non-surgical remedy for my sweaty palms and feet though. It does not seem to work for that.

I hope this helps!

well I have it and I cant say it works cos you know as for me I sweat only when Im worried ,all the other time palms are dry , and its hard for me to say if it works ,but I know if Im really worried they still sweat (not too heavily but still) thats not good enough cos if I want to touch someone I automatically start worrying thinking that they might become wet heh+)

I've never used it but apparently one of the main advantages is that it doesn't sting, and it doesn't loose its strength as its a spray, not a bottle which will pick up moisture.

Also Driclor will stop working after a certain time (maybe 1 or 2 years), I don't think odaban does this.

I have used both Odaban and Driclor. I used Odaban first, many years ago when I was a teenager. Then about 4 years ago I bought Driclor as I couldn't find any Odaban.
After using both, I found that they were pretty much the same, so much so I thought that they had just changed names.
I know what you mean about the stinging but I think when I read the instructions it said not to put too much on. You only need a small amount. They were both roll-ons and I would simply roll it on my armpits and then get some tissue and pat it dry to get the excess off. It would either sting very slightly or the skin would become slightly irritated but nothing too painful. Sometimes I would wet the area afterwards to cool it down. You can also roll some on the tissue and dab it on your armpits.
I found both to be very effective.
