For Hyperhidrosis "I've been using Drysol for over 10 years, and it has been a blessing to my life. Like many of you, I suffered from the burning, itchy sensation and dryness as a result of the usage of this product. I was told by my dermatologist to place the Drysol solution on my underarm, and once it completely dries, to then place hydrocortisone lotion (no prescription required over the counter). As far as the dryness; in the areas where you experience dryness (i.e., hands & feet), place the Drysol solution, and once it completely dries, place Excipial lotion (no prescription required) over the areas that are dry. This has worked wonders for me and is a MUST try. Hope this helps!"

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've had hyperhidrosis for as long as I can remember (5/6 years old, my mom noticed first). My problem areas are my hands and feet. 24 now, but growing up and going to school was a total mess for me. I hated it. The equivalent to that are my job interviews now. I developed social anxiety and anxiety in general. I ruined so many pairs of shoes, and I could never wear sandals or dress cute because my ankles would show my sweat also. Could never get my nails done either, ugh. Anywho, I tried Drysol for the first time last night. No side effects, although my hands and feet feel a little dry this morning (8 am). I normally start sweating for no reason as soon as I wake up... no sweat just yet. I'll update later. Running out of room :)"

For Hyperhidrosis "I've suffered from this condition my whole life. When I was younger, people would always make comments on my hands. After years of begging, I was taken to get it checked out. I'm amazed at the results. For the first time that I can remember, my hands and feet are dry! The problem for me is the soles of my feet are itchy. Not just a slight itch, no, it's much worse. After a few days, it fades. As a result of taking this, it has caused my skin to peel from its dryness."
