Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "I’m sure a lot of you guys are like me, dealing with excessive sweating all around your body, even in cool temperatures. This was something that lowered my self-esteem and confidence greatly. Needless to say, I was looking for anything that can help, and Certain Dri did. Of course, sometimes I still get a bit sweaty, but 98% of the time I’m completely dry and don’t have to worry about pit stains. I put it on before bed, as instructed, and remain dry all day. I’m really so grateful I found this. Get it!"

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "This product is a lifesaver. I tried almost everything before I found this, and I was almost giving up. Certain Dri really works. My armpits used to be so wet all the time, and it was so embarrassing, and it stinks really, really bad. I even tried Secret Clinical Strength, and that was a waste of money, it made me sweat even more. I only use it twice a week, and the whole week I have dry armpits, and I smell good all day, even with heavy activities. Thank you, Certain Dri. I only wish I discovered this product sooner."

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "This product is unreal. I was always sweating for no reason. At work, under my arms were wet all day, and all my undershirts were ruined. Then it got worse. If I felt like someone was looking at me or I got embarrassed, my forehead would sweat. Seriously, this product is amazing, it works like a charm."

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "Absolutely amazing! I have been suffering from hyperhidrosis for almost 10 years when a coworker suggested Drysol. And to my surprise, it actually worked! I tried all the over-the-counter deodorants, and they never did the trick, but this did. I use it about once a week and have no problems. If I do miss a dosage, I do notice that the sweating is a little worse, but then I just put it on that night, and all is good. I would highly recommend this product!"

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "So far, not so good. I've been using it for about a week and a half, and I still sweat. My dermatologist said I can use my regular deodorant/antiperspirant if I'm paranoid this might not work. Well, I didn't the first time I used Hypercare because I wanted to see if it would work. I smelled an odor, so the next day I used my deodorant. Also, I do not like the applicator. I have been using a sponge to apply mine."

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "I started using this product a little more than a week ago. I applied it three nights in a row as instructed and went to a party the next day to test it out. I still sweated, but not nearly as much, and I had hope that with time I would be totally sweat-free. I applied it once again the following night, only to continue to sweat the next day. Since then (it's been about four days), I have applied Hypercare every night without any improvements in the amount I sweat. Today was the first day of school, and I was sweating the entire day, unable to lift my arms at all for fear of the odor and stains. I feel so hopeless now and don't know what to do."

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "I am almost 13 years old. When I was pretty young, I had not a hint of a sweating problem. Then, once I got a little older, it all started. I was extremely embarrassed to shake people's hands, and even more embarrassed when my friends asked me, 'Why are your hands so wet?' and I would always lie and say, 'Oh, I just washed them.' I would always wear a jacket to cover my hands, and I would constantly be wiping my hands. I finally convinced my mom to take me to a doctor, and they prescribed Hypercare. Although at some points in the day my fingertips would sweat, the problem is almost completely gone. Thanks, Hypercare, you saved me."

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "I am 12. In school, I would hate to raise my hand, which made me fall behind in math because I wasn't asking questions. In choir, we would have to do stretches and warm-ups with movement, I, however, just sat there. People started to notice, and I would be angry. Then I got Hypercare, it worked for about a half hour, then I started sweating again."

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "I started using this about 4 days ago. It worked really well in the beginning. I didn't sweat or anything. I was actually surprised and glad I can finally touch my dogs without getting their hair all over my palms. But ever since yesterday, my hands and feet have been sweating nonstop. I read I can't apply it when the area is wet...that it has to be dry...so there is no possible way I can apply it. Hopefully, my hands stop sweating soon."

For Hyperhidrosis "I've had excessively sweaty hands since puberty, probably since around age 12. It's been such an embarrassment my whole life. Shaking hands, holding hands, touching anyone's arm, face, etc. always gave me anxiety, worrying about whether my hands were drenched. Wiping them on my pants, putting tissues in my pockets before I had to shake hands so I could dry them off, it's insane. I'm 27 years old now and finally asked my doctor about Drysol. I wish I would have found this product years ago. It has given me so much more confidence. The sweat isn't completely gone, my hands still get clammy from time to time, but I'd say it's reduced by at least 75%. Amazing!!"

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "I am 14, in 9th grade, and it's my first day after I applied it. It worked until about the 3rd hour class, then started to sweat a little. Not so much people noticed, but I am super self-conscious and was paranoid. I hope it gets better for gym the next day. Since the beginning of last year, I had to wear sweaters every day or I'd have soaked underarms. Today I wore only a plaid overshirt and barely sweat. Again, hope for better results soon!"

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "My doctor gave me this to use on my first day of school, and it stopped the sweating for about 30 minutes but ever since then I just keep sweating. I don't know what to do. I've tried everything out there."

Aluminum chloride hexahydrate topical for Hyperhidrosis "I'm 17, and my hands were sweaty whenever I thought about it. Lately, I've been thinking about it all the time because I was worried about shaking hands and/or leaving sweaty marks after I touched something. It's gotten really bad, and I went to see a doctor. She told me to try Drysol, which I did, and it worked great, but not at first. It actually made my hands sweat even more, probably because I was stressed about whether it was going to work or not. It started to work after applying it twice a day for a few days (the doctor told me to). The last time I used it was like 5 nights ago, and my palms have been so dry since that I had to use hand cream. Yeah, unbelievable! Just don't give up on it too fast, and it will work. Good luck!"
