For Hyperhidrosis "This is the most amazing thing ever. It burns like hell, but if you follow the directions, it's a lot more tolerable! I completely stopped sweating within 2 days of using Hypercare. Before my doctor told me about this, I tried everything I could get off the shelves, and it would work for a day (if at all), and then I would sweat again. But this will stop my sweating for a couple of months at a time now that I've been using it for a while. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who feels like they sweat excessively."

For Hyperhidrosis "I used Hypercare in the past, but stopped using it. I decided to use it again yesterday because I have been sweating a ton. Well, last night it was itchy and burning my armpits. I didn't sweat today, though! I just put it on about 15 minutes ago, and the burning and itching are much worse. It hurts so badly. I am only using this until I can get to the dermatologist to get something that won't hurt so much."

For Hyperhidrosis "Since I was 12 (I am almost 20 now), I have had a terrible problem with armpit sweat. I went years just dealing, getting rid of my cute shirts for black shirts instead, and wearing jackets even in the Florida heat. I never bothered to ask my doctor about it. It never occurred to me that anything but surgery or Botox was an option. I tried clinical deodorant after clinical deodorant, and while one might work for a day or so, I would inevitably begin sweating again within the third application or so. This is my second day using Hypercare, and although it tends to burn after applying, within an hour or so it goes away and I was left feeling completely dry up to my next application. This is such a huge boost to my self-esteem!"

For Hyperhidrosis "It only burns when putting it on after shaving or in excessive amounts. I have been using it for years and only need to apply it about once a month to keep my armpits from having an odor. I do not ever sweat anymore. So glad I bought this product."

For Hyperhidrosis "So, I don't know what this medicine is made of...unicorn horns? Pixie dust? Whatever is in here, it WORKS. My first time using it was last Thursday night. I followed the directions exactly and prepared myself for the itching and burning. Surprisingly, I felt zero pain or itchiness at all. I actually worried that I had applied it incorrectly, but the next day, after risking wearing a medium-toned peach cotton t-shirt, I had NO sweating. At all. All day. I even texted my hubby from work, I was so happy. I used it the next night (Friday) and then not again all weekend. I stayed dry and happy all weekend. Simply amazing stuff. I feel a huge, sweaty weight has been removed from my shoulders."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been suffering from severe sweating since 6th grade. It wasn't just a situation of not being able to raise my arms-I had to wear black shirts every day, or the sweat stains would show. Even in the middle of winter, I would sweat. Finally, I asked my doctor for Hypercare (which I had heard about from a friend). I used it for the first time last night, and today was amazing. I wore a tight green shirt, and I didn't sweat all day. I did feel like I was sweating at points, but when I checked, there was no wetness. There was some burning when I put it on, but it was well worth it. This is an amazing product!"

For Hyperhidrosis "This is absolutely amazing. After about 1 3/4 years of sweating, I finally had enough when I would sweat through hoodies with huge stains. None of my friends would say anything about it, but my mom (who also has it) finally called my pediatrician and got a prescription. I put it on the first night, and it burned a lot, but it's nothing unbearable. The next day, sweat-free. Some days I would forget to put it on at night and go through the day with little to no sweat at all. Not even sweating through my clothes. I still put it on every night just to be safe, but it really works! I would recommend getting this product. Some people say it doesn't protect against smell, but it does for me. The only problem is a little itching during the day and a rash."

For Hyperhidrosis "This product is amazing. I went up to my aunt's house for 2 weeks, and I told her about my condition. She gave me Hypercare because my cousin said it didn't work for her. I figured I would try it. I applied it, and it burned, itched, and stung. But the next day, I didn't sweat at all! The pain got so bad that I just stopped using it. But a few nights ago, I found this website and read the reviews and applied it again, dealing with the pain. I recommend it to anybody! This all started when I was about 9, in 5th grade. Now I'm 13 in 7th, and I don't have all the insecurities!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I have battled hyperhidrosis for 6 years, trying everything from loofas, SweatBlock, Certain Dri, even putting cinnamon on my underarms, all to no avail. Then, last week I was at the doctor's, and I decided to mention my sweating problem. She prescribed Hypercare and told me that it has worked for all of her patients. Yeah, I'd heard that one before. Skeptically, I went home and followed the directions to the tee. I did experience severe itching and burning (I'm not going to lie, it was intense and kind of felt like someone was holding a blowtorch to my pits), but it was all worth it the next day when there wasn't a drop of sweat on my gray shirt! Please give Hypercare a try, it has truly changed my life!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been using it now 3 nights a week and have used it for 3 weeks now, and I burn and itch still. I also need to use other deodorant because my underarms still get the body odor smell because I am in sports. I still use Hypercare because I can wear any color of clothing. It is truly amazing!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I am 18 years old, and I have had a sweating problem under my arms since I was 13. I have been wearing black T-shirts since I can remember, only because they didn't show sweat! I went to my doctor about a month ago, and she prescribed me Hypercare. I love it. I could feel the difference just after one use. It really is a miracle! Yes, it itches, and sometimes burns when you put it on, but it is totally worth it, and many people say that I would start sweating a lot in other places, but I haven't noticed that anywhere, so I am super happy with Hypercare."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been using Hypercare for years now. I noticed people were saying it burned quite a bit. My doctor told me to take a wet wash cloth and get the affected area damp prior to using Hypercare, and it takes care of the burning. It really does work."

For Hyperhidrosis "My first night I applied Hypercare, and it burned beyond belief, but I stuck through it. The next morning, I decided to have a trial run, so I purposefully wore a light-colored shirt. To my amazement, there wasn't one drop of sweat and no sweat stains. I am truly impressed with Hypercare and have recommended it to a few friends that have the same embarrassing sweat problem that I do."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been using this for 5 days on my face to treat excessive sweating. I experienced extreme burning and itching. One thing that has worked for it is baking soda. I pour some in a cup and mix it with a little water until it is the consistency of icing. After I put it on, I don't experience any more burning or itching. Then, when it dries, I take it off. Good luck, and I hope this helped."

For Hyperhidrosis "I just put it on last night for the first time. However, I put way too much on, and my armpits have been burning and red ever since. However, for right now, I think it's worth it. To wear the clothes you want without having to worry. No deodorant put on after that application. Still dry."

For Hyperhidrosis "I'm a 15-year-old girl, and I've been using this product for about 2 years now. I used to sweat in my underarms so badly that I'd have huge pit stains, no matter if it was hot outside or not. I started wearing only baggy t-shirts to school because I was so uncomfortable. Then my doctor prescribed Hypercare, and it truly works wonders. I put it on at night before I go to bed, and it burns, tingles, and itches a little, but it's definitely worth it. The next day, I don't sweat AT ALL. Now I can wear cute clothes, and I don't feel gross or uncomfortable! I love this product!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Since about 7th grade, I've been dealing with SUPER sweaty armpits. I mean a water fountain. I would have to wear sweaters to school every day (even in summer). I avoided light-colored shirts and anything tight-fitting. I tried men's deodorants and every kind of women's deodorants out there. Finally, at age 19, I went to the doctor and embarrassingly told her of my sweat problem, and she prescribed me Hypercare. My first application itched and burned a little, but the next morning I didn't sweat. Last night was my second application, and this morning it had a little rash (I'm not worried), but I think it's totally worth it if it keeps my sweat problem under control. I should have gone to the doctor in like 8th grade! Thank you, doctors!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I've been sweating excessively since the seventh grade. I'm now in the ninth grade, and a week ago my doctor prescribed me Hypercare for my excessive sweating. On the first night of application, I felt no burning or itching at all. On the following day, my sweating was cut drastically. I was still sweating and stinking, but it was at a fairly normal amount. I applied it again for the next two nights. It was the same result; still some sweating and stinking. On the fourth day of application, I sweated a little bit in the morning, then nothing after about 12 p.m. I couldn't believe it! This product did take time to work, but I couldn't be happier! I do apply deodorant in the morning to stop the stinking and feel fresh."

For Hyperhidrosis "I had a problem with sweaty armpits since freshman year in high school. I told my mom about my problem. She took me to the doctor. When I used it for the first time, my armpits were on fire, due to not drying them up well. The second time I tried was about 5 years later, but I used a blow dryer after the shower on my armpits, then the medication. No problem. So now I'm 26 and tonight I'm doing it again and I'm also using a blow dryer to make sure it's dry and I don't have to suffer."

For Hyperhidrosis "This product is amazing. Ever since I can remember, I have been sweating profusely under my arms. I only wear black tops to try to hide the wetness, so I never enjoy wearing different colors. I used to go shopping and look at all the different color clothing and felt so bad I could not wear them. I had to move on to something that would hide the wetness. At the age of 47, I went to my family doctor, and I was sweating so bad I just came out and asked if there was something that could help me. I was given Hypercare and tried it that night, and it burned and stung, but the next day I did not sweat under my arms. I kept touching under my arms because I could not believe I was dry. I have been using it for several weeks now, and I still burn and sting."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have just applied this once to my underarms. Works great! Only problem is that I experienced burning and itching the first night I applied it. Haven't applied it since and now my underarms are peeling and burn and feel irritated in the morning when I put on a shirt and put my arms down. Maybe it was because I used too much at first, I'm not sure, and I haven't used it since. I don't know what I should do. Has anyone had this experience?"

For Hyperhidrosis "It worked very well for the first 2 weeks, with some itching and burning, but it was tolerable. Now it doesn't burn or do much to prevent sweating. I don't sweat as much as I used to, but it is still an excessive problem. The next step is Botox injections, according to my doctor."

For Hyperhidrosis "The pain this causes is excruciating. I've had to get up several times during the night to wash it off due to the burning and itching it causes. It's so painful I can't sleep and end up tearing up washing it off. It works for a couple of days, and then you're back to suffering through a painful sleepless night. The pain isn't worth it."

For Hyperhidrosis "I've been a chronic underarm sweater for years. While this product did indeed stop my sweating, I've developed a burning and nasty rash under both arms. I've only used it twice and somehow doubt I'll be able to apply it again. Going to check with a dermatologist to find out why it is affecting me this way."

For Hyperhidrosis "I've read pages of these reviews after a second sleepless night due to itching and burning after application. I have blister-form eczema, for 7 tests now. I'm a 26-year-old female. The eczema is on my feet and is triggered by stress and sweating... and stress causes more sweating. My dermatologist prescribed this for me. Day 1, the sweat was 85% gone and very few new blisters appeared (only 4 when I normally get 10-20/day). It itches and burns pretty bad, but I'm toughing through it and am looking forward to tomorrow's results (day 2). When I'm blister-free, I'm going to get my first pedicure ever!"
