For Hyperhidrosis "I struggled with extreme facial sweating for years, and when I say extreme, I mean it! I used to carry a Kleenex or paper towels or even real towels in my purse to dry my face. I couldn't apply any product because I sweated like there was no tomorrow. I do not live in a warm place (Montreal), but even extreme cold temperatures did not change anything. As soon as it was a little warm (like climbing onto a bus after a 5 min walk by -20°C), I sweated, and I was soaked... Well, I have been using Xerac, and the day after the first application, it was LITERALLY a miracle. I went out, and I walked more than 2 miles by 26°C, and there was a very light amount of sweat around my nose, and that was it!! I recommend this product! It changed my life!!"

For Hyperhidrosis "My sweating is confined to my head and face. I must be the only one because the posts I've read are underarms, feet, and hands. So I went to my dermatologist. I wanted Hypercare, but he opted for the slightly weaker medication Xerac to start. It really stung my forehead the first time, I left it on for three hours and had to wipe it off my face. Scalp was okay. The next day, head sweat cut by 75%, I'd say. So last night, it did not sting at all on my face. Left it on all night. Will see how I do today."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have palmar hyperhidrosis. When I used this, it didn't work for me at all. My sweat literally sweated off the medication. I used it every night all summer long and got no results. I've been struggling for at least 3 years."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been a terrible underarm sweater for years. To the point where I thought about getting Botox injections under my arms. I went to the doctor, and she prescribed this stuff. No joke, after one night's use, I don't think I have had one drop of sweat under my arms for 2 days, miracle in a bottle! Use it!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Wow! I had been struggling with excessive underarm sweating for several years, and more recently, the sweating was made worse by a prescription medication. I wore only black and other dark colors for months, and I couldn't even wear sleeveless tops because the sweat would sometimes drip down my arms. Finally, I went to my doctor in frustration, and she immediately prescribed Xerac AC, noting that this had worked for many of her patients. I used it very sparingly the first night (dabbed it on carefully), mainly because I'd read about the potential for stinging discomfort. The next day, I was still sweating, but only about 1/4 of what I had been. The next night, I applied a bit more, and it only stung a bit. The next day, NO SWEAT. Recommended!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Absolutely amazing! I use it every night before bed, and in the morning, I go to school, then work without having to reapply it or any other antiperspirants. It works like a charm, I highly recommend it. It may sting a little the first few times, but it is definitely worth it. I've tried everything possible to stop sweating, but nothing worked until I tried this."

For Hyperhidrosis "Let me start off by saying how much this has changed my life. This is the most amazing product I have ever used in my entire life. For the past 5 years, I have always suffered from hyperhidrosis. It didn't matter what the weather was outside, I would always be sweating under my arms. If it was 90 degrees or 20 degrees, I would be sweating close to the same amount. After using this product 1 time, my sweating COMPLETELY stopped!! I never thought any product would solve my problem, but I was so wrong. I am so happy this is now in my life because I can't imagine going back to my old days of sweating. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone suffering from hyperhidrosis! This product is life-changing."

For Hyperhidrosis "It worked better than I had expected. The day following my first application, I was a normal human with normal armpits. A few days in a row of use, then roughly once a month. My sweating is under control. I've maybe used it twice since the first six months. Three years later, I keep the bottle around just in case I notice excess perspiration beginning again."

For Hyperhidrosis "Amazing! Used to sweat so badly underarms! It was so embarrassing to have sweat stains when I was barely doing anything. One night of using this and I instantly did not sweat the next day! And you only have to use it once or twice a week after you stop sweating. Tried everything, and this truly works! Stings pretty bad the first time, but thought it was well worth it. Did not feel a thing after the first time, though!"
