I have had hyperhidrosis of my hands, armpits, and feet my entire life. It made many things in my life extremely uncomfortable or impossible to do. (Even simple things... shaking hands, preparing food, wearing grey or any non-dark T-shirts, wearing sandals, the list goes on). I've been using Hypercare for 3 years now and it has literally changed my life. It's affordable and effective. I recommend to anyone suffering from hyperhidrosis.

HyperCare is truly amazing. Worked after the very first application for my 12 yr old daughter. We tried every deodorant including Certain Dry & all the clinical strength products which did not work at all - she would still come home from school soaking wet in her armpit area. I really did not want to have her injected with botox but was seriously going to check into it because of the damage the sweating was doing to her self esteem. HyperCare did cause some irritation but my daughter says it is absolutely worth it - she is sooo happy and excited to be able to wear any color shirt now. I had no idea that it was that big of a problem for her because she didn't tell me because she was embarrassed about it. Absolutely recommend this product !

This product is AMAZING !! I am a 13 year old and I have been sweating a lot since 6th grade. I told my mom a week ago that I cant take sweating anymore. So embarrassing in school. No one really notices me sweating because I would always wear a jacket even in the summer time! So I called my doctor and she told me she would prescribe Hypercare. Well I used it the first night and wow the nest morning I didn't sweat a bit. I can wear any color now but every night I put it on it burns or itches but mostly itches. It's worth it trust me. So thank you so much Hypercare and yes I do recommend it to anybody who sweats a lot.

I suffered from EXTREME hyperhidrosis for eleven years since the age of thirteen. I used to wear several layers of clothing including paper towels under my arms to try to disguise the problem, but to no avail. I would sweat through several layers of clothing. Greatly to my surprise, after just two weeks of using Hypercare MY SWEATING CEASED. Because the active ingredient in it is an alcohol solution you can apply as many layers as you need without a nasty buildup of gunk that come with regular solid and gel antiperspirants. I really thought I was going to need botox or surgery, but ended up trying this product at the urging of my dermatologist. SO HAPPY.

I honestly didn't realize I had a medical condition. I just thought my deodorants weren't working for me. I recently had a rash under my arm and went to the doctor and he said I had hyperhidrosis. For the past few years I'm am only to wear tank tops or black/white shirts to prevent the seeing of my underarm sweat, so terribly embarrassing. I would have such envy of anybody who could wear a clingy colored shirt! Now that I have been prescribed Hypercare it has only been one day and I wore a gray clingy shirt today with no armpit sweat stain! I feel so much more comfortable now, and I get too expand my wardrobe with clingy colorful shirts now! Thank you doctor!

I have very sweaty palms that I unfortunately inherited from my mother and father. I just started using Hypercare one week ago and applied it nightly. I have seen a wonderful change in such a short period of time. My sweaty hands affected me in social and religious settings which included shaking hands. It used to be so embarrassing to watch the reaction on the other person's face when they shook my wet palms. Hypercare has made me feel so much happier, like a weight lifted off my shoulders. I can't say enough about it.

I had the same problem. Always had to wear black or a zipper up/sweater to cover it. My doctor prescribed this to me and it's like a gift from heaven! It burned so bad though. I couldn't really take it, so for all you girls out there that try it and have the same results ask your doctor to prescribe you triamcinolone lotion. You put it on after and there's no burning or swelling or anything! And it leaves your underarms super soft for shaving rather than irritated from the treatment. I definitely recommend this.

I've had hyperhidrosis for 15 years. I would embarrassingly sweat through multiple shirts daily. Business meetings were awful. I would actually adhere my wife's menstrual pads to my undershirts to try and get me through the day, but would eventually sweat through those too. In a recent visit to my dermatologist, he prescribed Drysol/Hypercare. Skeptically, I applied it that night. It burned and itched, keeping me up all night. The next day, I was COMPLETELY dry. I applied it again the next night, still itched but not as bad - slight rash. I took the next 3 nights off to let my armpits heal and still no sweat. I'm on my 2nd week, 3rd application and NO SWEAT. Far less irritation now, dry, and couldn't be happier - truly life changing.

It's a miracle. Hypercare saved my life. I had been suffering from smelling arm pits all my life to the point that used to have (all the time) baby wipes and a deodorant in my purse to refresh my under arms. I don't need to do that anymore, thanks to Hypercare. I can deal with the burning and/or itching. I'm 35 years old and for the first time in twenty something years I found something that works. AND WHEN I SAY IT WORKS I MEAN IT WORKS.

Hypercare is the best! I don't sweat anymore. Now I can go out in pubic without worrying about huge sweat stains appearing on my shirt. I don't have to worry about wearing hoodies, sweaters or jackets to school to cover up my soaking wet shirts especially in the summer time after school! I have been a heavy sweater for 4 years, since 6th grade to 9th). I should have tired this years ago. No more skipping out on activities with friends or just teenage stuff. I can finally be me! I recommend this to anyone with the problem. If it does not work for you, don't give up. Keep trying to find a good product that works for you.

I'm 14 years old and have been suffering from underarm sweetness since I was 9. I hated going shopping and buying shirts because I couldn't wear any light colors only black. As I got older it got worse and I didn't really like talking to other people and in class I wouldn't raise my hand. My mom decided to take me to my doctor and he told me about Hypercare. The first night I tried it, it itched and burned but the next day I didn't SWEAT! I was happy and thank my doctor. Good thing they invented this product and know that I'm going to high school and I can socialize with a lot of people without being afraid. Yay!
I started using it last night and I have not started sweating yet today! Normally I will have sweat rings under my arms within an hour of sitting at my desk in my air conditioned office but not today! It did burn a little last night but it seems like it only burns when the medicine is activated with moisture. I used the blow dryer on a cool setting to dry my armpits after washing last night to make sure they were completely dry and it didn't burn at all while applying. I have been living with this condition since 6th grade and I am 24 now. I am going to apply it to my sweaty feet tonight and hopefully it will work just as well!
I am 29 years old and today is the first day in 16 years that I was able to wear a light colored shirt ALL DAY while 90 degrees outside and not have one wet spot under my arms. I honestly feel like a whole new woman. My closet has consisted of nothing but black shirts for over 10 years. I have always loved color and have never been able to wear any color. Even in the winter I would sweat all day even if it was freezing outside.
I have now applied Hypercare for 3 nights and i have NO wetness..... its amazing.
My doctor gave me this to use on my first day of school, and it stopped the seating for about 30 minutes but ever since then I just keep sweating. I don't know what to do. I've tried everything out there.
This product truly is amazing! I am 21 years old and since I was in the 6th grade I have had a problem with my sweating. I always avoided really cute tops and dresses that I knew I would sweat in and ruin. Basically all my tops are black and it was still visible that I was sweating. I never wore tight shirt, always real loose fitting and I was just miserable. Finally I got over my embarrassment and ask my gynecologist what I can do about this sweating problem and she prescribed Hypercare. It stung so badly and I had so much irritation that I wanted to cry but I am so glad I kept using it because that burning was so worth it! I can wear ANYTHING I want, no matter the fit or color. It is amazing and I feel so beautiful and happy! I recommend this product!
HELLO FELLOW SWEATERS! I was the worst sweater ever. Everyday, regardless of what I was wearing, I had huge armpit stains and I mean huge. Like a good 5 inches in diameter. And it didn't matter what material I was wearing or what color, it was noticeable! I would also sweat through huge hooded sweatshirts. I have no idea how that is even possible.
When I came on this website I read everyone's reveiws and thought..."there's no way anyone on here sweats as much as I do. Its not gonna work for me" but, I was wrong! The first couple nights I applied it, it stung a lot and itched too, but I toughed it out because at that point I didn't care. And the next day.. TA DAA! No sweat. Not even a drop..it was amazing! Goodluck.
I agree with most of the other users here that this is an amazing product. I have had hyperhidrosis for a couple of years and sort of learned to live with it rather than treat it as a medical condition and get treatment. Aside from some itching and irritation at night, I can't think of anything bad about this medicine. For the first time in years, I don't have to hide my underarms or wipe my hands on my jeans before shaking hands with someone. And I just went to the store to buy some light-colored shirts. Hypercare/Drysol is really life-changing for me. Thanks to you all for sharing your experiences, and if anyone reading this discussion suffers from hyperhidrosis, I hope you will give this drug a try.
I have only recently been suffering with underarm hyperhydrosis. It started about 4 months ago. I'm 49. It is a terribly frustrating condition that impacts your standard of living. I have just started using Hypercare. With the first application of Hypercare, my condition improved dramatically. With the second application, I am dry all day long. It does cause some irritation of the skin under the arm, but now I'm on my 4th day of using it and that irritation has subsided.
So far, not so good. I've been using it for about a week and a half and I still sweat. My dermatologist said I CAN use my regular deodorant/antiperspirant if I'm paranoid this might not work. Well, I didn't the first time I used Hypercare because I wanted to see if it would work. I smelled an odor so the next day I used my deodorant. Also, I DO NOT like the applicator. I have been using a sponge to apply mine.
I've been using the product for about 1 month, and the sweating is absolutely gone. My doctor recommended the Botox treatment, but HyperCare is a much cheaper alternative. It did itch for the first 2 weeks, but has since subsided and there is no longer any itching or burning. I also notice that I can now skip 1-2 days, and the sweating is still managed. Great product!
I've had hyperhidrosis for as long as I can remember, especially on my hands and feet. My dermatologist prescribed it to me last week. I've been using Hypercare for a few days now- it's definitely dried my skin out, and I haven't been sweating as much. Yet I still have the occasional outbreaks. However, I talked to my doctor, who said that it takes usually around 2 weeks for the product to really affect you. I'm hanging in there, and so far satisfied.
My family has a history of perspiration problems, and I have finally found the solution! I've tried antiperspirants, Certain Dri, and various OTC products, but Hypercare was the one that really worked. This sounds like one of those commercials that you shouldn't really believe, but this is real stuff. I'm 16, so it's common for people my age to be wearing t-shirts to school that fit and the occasional dress shirt for formal gatherings. I couldn't wear shirts that fit me because they would touch my underarm, and then the sweat would stain my shirts. I wore baggy shirts for the longest time. It could be 12 degrees outside, and I'd still sweat. Now, in this New England humidity, I can wear whatever I want without humidity being a problem.
Absolutely felt better in years. i have never used any medication prior to this so i was absolutely skeptical about my issue. this morning, i waited and waited for that steady drip down my armpit and it never came and it was only the first day i used it! I was absolutely ECSTATIC. now, i can wear clingy shirts and cute tops without ever worrying about there being a nasty stain or worse having someone see the sweat. Btw, the stinging are only small side effects. neverthless, no pain no gain.
I am 16 years old. I have been having a sweating problem since I was 12 years old. I would sweat day and night. I would wake up with huge sweat drenched shirts, go take a shower throw a new shirt on and in under 30 minutes. I got a brand new drenched shirt. I am a very social person, I go to a lot of parties, meet a lot of people, even play sports but something always holds me back from going to some parties or going to some places because of this bad sweating problem I have. I would wear different zipper hoodies to hide my sweating problem, wear almost all black shirts, to hide the very embarrassing problem. The very first night I got this medicine, my whole life changed. I am sweat free, and can wear any color I want.
