For Hyperhidrosis "Hypercare is AMAZING! I have had an excessive sweating problem since high school. I always wear tank tops (never long-sleeved or regular t-shirts). But if I have to, I will wear a black shirt. I sweat constantly. Just the other day, I was sitting in an orientation for work, and the AC was broken, and it was over 100 degrees in the room. I was sitting in a business suit and didn't even want to take my jacket off because I knew what was going on underneath. I had a waterfall of water falling from my armpits onto my shirt. Huge armpit wet spots. So I sat there and suffered, lol. Not anymore! This stuff really works. It definitely stings if you put it on the same day that you shaved, and it itches. But I don't even care! I'm in love with this."

For Hyperhidrosis "I LOVE this product. I just started using it yesterday, and it already stopped my sweating. I can raise my hand, stretch, and participate in gym activities. The only bad part about this is the stinging. I did shave that morning, and I applied it at around 8:00 pm. It felt like someone was pricking me with a needle for about 20-30 minutes, but it definitely subsided after that, and I was able to sleep, shower, and apply deodorant. It is SO worth some sting to stop the sweat and not have deodorant caked on my shirts."

For Hyperhidrosis "Wow! I've been using Hypercare for a week, and it has been an absolute miracle. The first time I used it, the stinging was shockingly harsh. I had been using Certain Dri, which stung a little, and figured this would be no different. It was WAY worse.... But! I was sweat-free for the first time in a decade! And the terrible sting never happened again, only the one time after my initial application. I hope this continues to work as well as it has been. Not a drop of sweat so far. I couldn't be happier!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I would just like to start out by saying that Hypercare is an absolute miracle! It changed my life. I am 17 and have been having a sweating problem since my freshman year, and all my friends always make fun of me for it because I will constantly be sweating and having armpit stains whether it's 100 degrees out or 6 degrees. I was always sweaty. So last week, my mom finally took me to the doctors, and they prescribed me Hypercare. I used it that night, and the next day I had NO armpit stains! And the funny part is, the day before this product, I was wearing a brown loose shirt and I had the largest stains, and then the day of wearing Hypercare, I was wearing a light blue tight shirt and I had ZERO stains. It does sting a little, but not that bad."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have suffered from the nasty beast we call hyperhidrosis my entire life. I started using this medication on July 15th, and today, on the 16th, my sweating was reduced by at least 90%. This is coming from a person who would have pit stains going down my sides and had to throw out shirts usually after a wear or two. After only 1 day, I'm surprised it's working the way it is. I will post an update in a week and let you know how it's going, but please, if you have this condition, try it. It is truly a life changer. The stinging (a side effect) is a small price to pay based on the results."

For Hyperhidrosis "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 shirts, always real loose-fitting, and I was just miserable. Finally, I got over my embarrassment and asked 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!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I was the worst sweater ever. Every day, 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 reviews and thought... 'there's no way anyone on here sweats as much as I do. It's 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! Good luck."

For Hyperhidrosis "I had no problem with hyperhidrosis until I passed the age of 40. Then it suddenly became a huge problem. Peri-menopause, perhaps. I began sweating profusely and became very self-conscious about my body odor. I tried many different antiperspirants/deodorants, including 'clinical strength.' They would work for a short time, then stop working. I mentioned this to my nurse practitioner, and she suggested I try this. It really works! I will admit the itching/tingling/stinging is annoying, but worth dealing with to have dry pits! I used Hypercare for a few years, but recently was prescribed Drysol. They seem to work equally well and have the same side effects for me."

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 "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. By the way, the stinging are only small side effects. Nevertheless, no pain, no gain."

For Hyperhidrosis "So, the night before I used Hypercare, I came onto this site and looked at user reviews, since I was reluctant to use it at first because I was worried it wouldn't work and I'd have bad BO all day at school. I think the user reviews helped my unsureness because that's what mattered most to me; how it worked for the everyday person. I put it on last night, and it stung and itched (I'm on the second night, and the itch is still there), but the next day I barely sweat. I sweat a little at lunch (but since it's the first day, it's not fully effective), but that was it! Hypercare is a dream come true. No longer do I have to live with the embarrassment of sweating."

For Hyperhidrosis "I've been using Hypercare for a little over a year, and it works great if I use it every night. Unfortunately, it does sting a lot. I've found that using Ultrabalm from Lush Cosmetics definitely brings down the stinging quite a bit, so I'd recommend that to anybody who has the same problem!"

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 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."

"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 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."
