Hey Pinker,

Actually, there's no itching yet... That was really one of the selling points from me... All the testimonials from people who had heavy sweating claim that it's completely worry free. So I tried it and it neither smells like anything or does feel like much.

You apply it at night and it just works. It kinda changed my life, so I tell everyone on all the forums that I belong on, to check it out.

Metalogue, over and out!

Check out the testimonials:

Copay for Doctor's Visit $20
Cost of Prescription $5
Dry, Confident Handshake PRICELESS

I suffered from Hyperhidrosis for many years. My hands, feet, and armpits would literally drip sweat constantly. I know that many of you can relate!! I tried nearly everything, and I was considering the nerve surgery (I figured being sweat-free was worth risking paralyzation - shame on me!).

I was doing some research online and came across a post from a guy that tried Ditropan. I figured it was worth a try! That was over TWO YEARS AGO!! I have been 95% sweat free since I started this medication! I cannot tell you how it has changed my life for the good!

No more wiping my hands on my jeans until my jeans were soaked; no more huge, wet armpit stains; no more avoiding all social situations because of the fear of soaking wet handshakes; no more damp socks and shoes; no more ruined papers.....shall I go on?!

I asked my Family Physician about getting this medication. He's the one that put me on it. I get "Oxybutynin" which is generic for Ditropan. (I found out that the generic actually works better. If you cannot get the generic, choose Ditropan over Ditropan XL. The regular Ditropan works better.) I take 5 mg of Oxybutynin each night.

The only noticeable side effect (besides the decreased sweating!) is fatigue. Which is why I take my pill right before I go to bed. It took about 2 - 3 weeks before I noticed a major difference so stick with it! After your sweating decreases, your anxiety lessens, which causes you to sweat less, which causes you to think about it less.....it's a wonderful positive cycle!!!

Please feel free to email me with any questions! I'd like to help as many people as possible as this medication has definitely helped ME!

Hi,

Great information on hyperhidrosis here. I have been using Idromed for over a month now, but no obvious effect! So, I thought adding glycopyrrolate solution might help... anyone know where can I order this online?

I know maybe Nova Laboratories has it, but calling there number (are they in the UK) is not very convenient. I perfer if there's a website where I can order it.

Also, anyone know where I can get the topical glycopyrrolate in lotion or cream form??

Thanks Razz

Do you live in the UK? I think you need to see a dermatologist to prescribe glycopyrrolate cream. Or maybe your doctor might be able to order it.

Hi my name (if isn't obvious enough) is Darren. I'm from Ireland & have had HH since about 15. I had the ETS when i was about 18-19 & experienced severe CS. Unfortunately in my quest to solve the CS i came across a doctor called Dr. Timo Telaranta from the Privatix Clinic (look it up) Anyhow he told me the ETS-Reversal would significantly reduce my CS with no return of the sweating to the hands. That was when i was about 21-22. It was bullshit. I travelled to Finland, had the operation at a cost to my parents of $20,000.00 and i have had no relief with the CS. It was a con.
Anyhow i'm 29 now & take Robinul 1mg tablets. They worked quite well for the first few years along with maxim. Hot days was hard. Unfortunately i've built up somewhat of a tolerance to the Robinul over the years.
I've tried ditropan (good few years ago) but as they cross the brain/blood barrier i found them very uncomfortable & nthey just made me feel weird. I never took them at night though. Do they have an accumulative effect? I'm intersted in trying them at night. could you tell me about dosages anyone. I'm also about to order secure wipes 3% to try on my back & chest & underarms. If anyone has any advice i'a appreciate it. Well done on the info for the site, really helpful.
Thanks,
Darren

Hi Pinker,
thanks alot for the reply, i appreciate it, you've put so much into this tread its unreal! I sent my receipt from the Privatix Clinic to the tax office over here and don't think i got it back. Do you think there's an avenue i try? Maybe thats a question for that website you attached. Thanks again. I'll be starting a new tread about the secure wipes & ditropan in the next day or so. Now i'm off to watch the mighty Reading beat Man Utd!
