For Hyperhidrosis "I am so grateful that Drysol exists. It is not the most pleasant experience at times, but I promise it's worth it. I've been using it for a couple of years now. I used to never be able to wear shirts that were tight to the armpit unless they were black. Expect some discomfort the first few times. Be careful because you don't need much, I just apply it to the areas on my armpits that actually have hair. Eventually, I got to a point where I only needed it once every few weeks. It's an amazing feeling to be working out and noticing that your armpits are completely dry, or being able to buy a shirt in a color other than black!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Ever since I was little, I had extremely sweaty hands. Anything I touched became wet, and I left little drops of sweat all over the place. It even came to the point where I couldn't cut my food sometimes because the knife would slip out of my sweaty fingers. Touching other people and shaking hands were things that I always dreaded and avoided. I'm 17 now, and things began to be even more awkward for me when holding hands with my boyfriend and practically leaving them dripping. Since about 6 weeks ago, I have been using Drysol, and it is amazing. I would say my hands are 75% less sweaty. The only thing that you have to deal with is your hands getting extremely dry and uncomfortable. But if you have a problem like I did, it's completely worth it."

For Hyperhidrosis "I am a 40-year-old male who, since I can remember, would sweat excessively under his arms. It does not matter if I was stressed, if I was hot, cold, etc. The worst is when it's 20 degrees outside, I'm freezing, yet my shirt is soaked under my arms. That drove me nuts. I used to sit at work and keep a stash of paper towels at my desk that I would sit under my arms so that the sweat marks would be less visible. Black was my favorite shirt color, especially on days when I had to present to a room full of people. I applied Drysol the first night, and the next day, 100 percent dry! I feel like a new person! I can wear tighter shirts, and I can even wear grey! There was some discomfort after applying, but it's well worth it, in my opinion!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I've had severe underarm sweating since puberty. It was so embarrassing and got worse with time. I used Drysol for the first time yesterday after realizing I truly needed a prescription antiperspirant, and WOW! I couldn't be happier. The FIRST DAY I wore a shirt in my most feared color (gray) and had NO sweat all day. I couldn't believe how well it worked! I admit to discomfort upon application, but it goes away shortly and is well, well worth it. I'll be a lifetime user. Incredible."

For Hyperhidrosis "Perfect. I saw results in the first use. I am not exaggerating. Within 3 days, I could wear tight, gray T-shirts with no marks. I never even imagined that would be possible. It had gotten to the point where I could only wear white or black T-shirts. I can now wear whatever I want. It is a dabber that you dab on your armpits at night, then wash off in the morning. It is a little uncomfortable at first, but if you truly sweat as much as I did, you will know that 15 minutes of discomfort at night is worth being able to finally take off that sweater covering your marks and not being embarrassed and holding back for the whole day. In fact, Drysol is so strong I have had to cut back to using it every other day. You will be amazed with your results."

For Hyperhidrosis "My doctor prescribed me Drysol a while ago. I used it today, and my arm is super irritated. I'm feeling a lot of discomfort. I've used Neosporin, and it doesn't solve it. I do not recommend it. If I could post a photo to show."
