For Hyperhidrosis "I had been suffering from excessive sweating in my armpits for at least 2 years before I finally got a doctor's opinion. Getting this medicine really changed what I did from day to day. I use it just once a week, and I never find myself sweating anymore. Sometimes I feel like I'm sweating, but when I look, I don't have a speck of sweat. The only problem I have with this medicine is that every time I apply it, my armpits get extremely itchy, and sometimes I will wake up with a rash, but I guess that's just the price of not having sweat anymore. I strongly advise you to talk to your doctor about this medicine if you're having the same problem! Don't be scared to ask!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I love this product! I have been sweating for years now and was too embarrassed to mention it to my doctor, but finally, after ruining all of my clothes, I asked her what to do. It works so great, but I get the itching/burning that other people have said. That's my only problem with the product, but it is worth it!"

For Hyperhidrosis "My armpits used to sweat through anything, no matter what. I tried every deodorant/antiperspirant I could find, even combined with baby powder. I really could never get a grip on the problem, and it ruined a lot of shirts trying. I'm 29 and have had insanely wet pits for years now. I live in New England, and even when it is 10 degrees outside, my pits would sweat crazy. Long story short, Hypercare knocked every one of my sweat glands in my pits out of commission. I use it every few days, and after a while, it will burn and itch, but it is just the price you pay for awesome effectiveness. Hypercare is amazing."

For Hyperhidrosis "I would get dressed in the morning, and by the time I was heading out the door to go to school or work, I'd have to change my shirt because of the sweat that was dripping from my armpits. I just became accustomed to bringing a sweater everywhere and wearing loose-fitting clothes. I started using this medication, and the next day (which happened to be a 95-degree day), I was so surprised/happy to have no sweat running down my arms. The first night I used it, I applied it to my armpits that had been shaved in the morning, it stung/itched, but I stuck it out. I now apply it every other day and just shave my armpits every other day. It doesn't itch/sting at all. I recommend this to everyone."

For Hyperhidrosis "I'm 17 and I have suffered from excessive underarm sweating for many years. Whenever I would get ready for school, I'd have to determine if the sweat would be noticeable on my top. Black tops and layering were the easiest options, but I was jealous of the people who could wear anything. At one school dance, I wore a strapless pink dress, and the sweat marks were visible in all the pictures. Completely mortifying. I tried pretty much every deodorant out there. Clinical strength, all different brands, but nothing was effective (some made me even sweat more). Hypercare has been a huge help in my life. I usually have the itching/stinging/burning feeling when I am trying to go to sleep, but honestly, it's worth it because it truly works."

For Hyperhidrosis "It works...or at least is working so far. I put it on last night and it burned and itched, but so worth it. It was hard using it with the top they give you for your underarms, but I noticed if you tip the bottle upside down a couple of minutes before you use it, it will soak the top and makes it a little easier. I have not sweated at all today. I put it on last night, washed it off in the shower, and applied a thin layer of my deodorant on. I have changed into shirts I know I sweat bad in, and it is very noticeable, but not today. I have been walking around in front of my husband saying do you see sweat....and NO, he doesn't. I asked different doctors a couple of years ago, and they said there is nothing we can do, but my new doctor prescribed it to me. Thank you."

For Hyperhidrosis "I LOVE THIS PRODUCT! I have suffered from profuse underarm sweating for over ten years and have tried EVERYTHING! Paper towels, over-the-counter clinical strength products, powder, only wearing white and black. I didn't want to buy expensive shirts because I knew they would be ruined soon. I have only been using this for 4 evenings, with one night off to shave, and I am about to go to class in a GREEN SHIRT. Normally, I would have already started sweating, but I am dry, dry, dry! I can hardly contain my excitement! Very, very mild itching for ten minutes after application, but nothing unbearable. I had worse itching with Dry Idea. I would recommend this to everyone!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Finally, I decided to try it, and after using it twice, the next day I didn't sweat, but my armpits still smelled, and I was afraid to put on deodorant because it said not to, so I didn't. The 3rd night it burned like hell and itched. I washed it off and stopped. I waited two days and I started again, it's itching but not burning."

For Hyperhidrosis "I'm 15, and I've had severe sweating problems since I was in 5th grade. I'm writing this as I sit here on my third consecutive night of applying the product. I can say that since I've started using it, I've had minimal sweating during the day. Definitely not enough to leave the dark sweat circles anymore. I can say goodbye to sweatshirts in summer. However, for the first few hours after applying the product to my underarms each night, I get the worst pins-and-needles, itching, and burning feeling I've ever felt in my life. It's so painful that it actually causes me to sweat for an hour or so after applying it, and I find it absolutely impossible to sleep. I'll be heading back to the doctor to see if she can give me anything to relieve it."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have always been the type of person who sweats a lot. I'm very active, so I never thought anything of it. However, I realized that I sweat the most when it is cold and I'm doing nothing but sitting at my desk in school! I tried the clinical strength deodorants, and they helped a little bit. Finally, I decided to talk to my doctor, and they gave me this product. I'm only on my second day of use, and I'm already amazed. The first night I experienced intense itching, however, it was manageable. The next day, I played in a tournament for 8 hours in 90-degree weather, and my shirt wasn't even wet! This product is amazing, and I highly recommend it to anyone with an overactive sweat problem!"

For Hyperhidrosis "This is AMAZING. 100% worth it! I didn't think this would work for me, I thought my hyperhidrosis would be too severe, but it's not! I had no burning or itching either, and it worked after the next night! I HIGHLY recommend this. Truly life-changing."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been using this for a few months now. Hypercare has changed my life. That is no exaggeration. As many of you out there probably know, sweating issues can seriously affect your quality of life. No more ruined shirts. No fear of lifting my arms. No longer have to layer an uncomfortably wet undershirt underneath, only to have to change it out halfway through the day. So much more confidence in simple day-to-day activities, and a confidence boost for things that really matter such as interviews or dates. The beautiful thing about this product is that after the first week or two, you don't have to apply it every night. Now I apply it 1-2 times a week, and that works great. I have no itching or irritation, but those results can vary."

"I have been sweating for 3 years, even if it was 30 degrees outside and I wasn't wearing a jacket. People would ask me why I was sweating, and it was so embarrassing I couldn't even explain. I would sweat through shirts onto jackets. I was tired of this, and knowing I would be section leader, I knew I'd have to not be sweaty under my arms because people would start saying something. I went to my doctor and asked if she knew of anything to help. She prescribed this, even though there is burning and itching, it is so worth the no sweating. In the Texas heat, this works perfectly."

"I love Hypercare! I used all different kinds of deodorant to think of, and nothing worked until one day I finally brought it up to my doctor and had me try this, and since I've been sold! Even though my health insurance covers it and the co-pay is only $5, and Hypercare lasts 6 months for me, and it's a tiny little bottle too! Like everyone else says, the first time it's applied, it stings and you will have to scratch, you get used to it, and that's totally tolerable for not sweating at all."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been sweating since I was about 12. I am 16 now, and I went to the doctor three days ago. She prescribed me Hypercare, and so far, this product has changed my life! After my first night, my sweating was significantly decreased, though still present, but each day after I use it, it works better and better. Today I thought for sure I was sweating. I felt like I was, and it was 90 outside, and nope: not a drop of sweat. Even on a clingy colored shirt. I wish I had tried this years ago. I have wasted half my high school experience wearing only black jackets and never raising my hand. I can't wait to start school in the fall now, being worry-free. It burns and itches BAD, but it's worth it."

For Hyperhidrosis "I am 16 years old and have been sweating like crazy since I started middle school. I always had to wear jackets and loose-fitting shirts to hide my sweat stains. I was embarrassed to tell my mom, but I had enough. I talked to my mom about it and she told me that I should mention it to my doctor on the next visit, which was luckily the next day. My doctor gave me Hypercare. I am on day 4 and it has helped a lot. The little 'dab-o-meter' that came with it doesn't work, so I have to dab my finger in it and apply it to my underarms. The first day it burned a little and stung, but nothing too much. But on the 3rd day, it was hard to fall asleep, it was so itchy I couldn't take it, but I managed. Hypercare, so far, has done wonders for me."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been using this product for years and absolutely love it! In school, I used to wear sweatshirts all the time, and sometimes I'd even sweat through those. When I first started using this, it was Drysol, but there doesn't seem to be a difference between that and Hypercare. I hadn't used it for a couple of months before last night, and the burning/itching was almost too much to tolerate, but no sweating today. The negative about this product is that it now has a new sponge top that you apply yourself. When I went to push it on last night, I lost my grip on the bottle and dropped it, spilling most of the brand-new bottle. How irritating! I wish it'd come 'assembled' as it used to."

For Hyperhidrosis "I was prescribed this by my doctor to deal with my excessive sweating under my armpits. After using it for a couple of times, I started experiencing itchy, reddish rashes under my arms. The rash didn't stop no matter how much I tried to heal it. I went to see my doctor, and she said it was an allergic reaction to the Hypercare and advised me to stop using it. She said I had dermatitis, which was the result of using Hypercare, and prescribed me a cream to cure the rash."

For Hyperhidrosis "I am a 17 y/o boy and have suffered from sweaty armpits for 11 months now. My doctor prescribed me Hypercare, and I cannot say it worked as well for me as it did for everyone else. For starters, I could not for the life of me get the bottle to work. It has a poorly designed top/dispenser, and I had to resort to dipping it on cotton balls and then applying. When I did use it, the first night was no biggie. But the second night I applied it, about 10 minutes into bed, my armpits became EXTREMELY itchy, enough to the point where I scratched and scratched and said enough and wiped off the solution with a towel. I have never been able to use it more than one night in a row. I couldn't even apply deodorant the following day due to the itching."
