After taking it for a few years with mostly good results (for palms and armpits) it stopped working for me altogether. Not only that but the dry mouth and dry eyes (seriously) were brutal, so there was no use in me taking it anymore.
I used to be the biggest proponent for Avert (I might be the first person to have tried it here and shared my experience) but was heartbroken when it stopped working. But I am happy to see how it helps so many people on here so I can't really bad mouth it.
Hi sportsfan8,
Is palms and armpits your only problem associated with HH?
I don't know your history with trying solutions for HH, so forgive me if you have already tried, but have you tried Driclor? I personally have generalised HH but the 'bad/hot' spots are palms, soles of feet, armpits, lower back and forehead.
My palms used to be very wet that I had to wipe them before I interacted with people or left a wet mark when holding onto a rail on public transport etc. With Driclor, I put it all over my palms for a week and for about a year now, they hardly sweat. 90%+ improvement and I only apply Driclor about once a month (so I could get even better results). Armpits I know Avert had almost 100% but Driclor does reduce the sweat up to 70%.
Before Driclor for my armpits, I used to sweat at home even I'm completely relaxed, doing nothing and the room temperature is below 20C. When I was out or exercising, the sweat would literally drip down my sides and if I was wearing a T-shirt; big wet patches under both arms.
So as you can see I did have it pretty bad but now with Driclor, I don't sweat at all from my armpits when I'm at home and when I'm out and/or exercising, my armpits are just a bit wet but no more dripping. T-shirts still get a little damp spots at times but a big improvement.
As for Avert, did you try taking a couple days break or even week before taking it again? You can even mix it up with taking Ditropan or Pro-banthine (alternative anticholinergic drugs). Also food intake and when may differ the results of Avert and what dosage you are taking and when.
Would be surprised if Avert 100% completely stopped working.
Hope this helps.
