For Hyperhidrosis "HOLY MOLY. I used to use this product off and on because I would forget about applying it at night, but since quarantine hit, I decided to actually have a nighttime routine and I started using one pad a day regularly, and I noticed I stopped sweating... everywhere. It was so weird because I’ve sweat literally everywhere (mostly my underarms) for all of my life. I have always suffered from hyperhidrosis. Anyway, one morning I woke up with the WORST dry mouth I have EVER experienced. To the point where I was choking. My throat was so sore it was unbearable and my vision was so blurred. I am literally depressed because this actually stopped my sweating, but the side effects are just too much to handle."

For Hyperhidrosis "Have been using Qbrexza for six months for underarm sweating. Was working great. In the past two weeks, though, the side effects have come out of nowhere and hit me hard. Excessive dry mouth to the point of choking on food, urinary problems, blurred vision and inability to sweat. I was working out, doing my normal routine and spiked a crazy high fever. At first, I thought it was the flu, but I was fine the next day. Went to work out tonight, same thing happened and my coach noticed I wasn’t sweating. Stopping immediately. Will be calling my dermatologist tomorrow!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Happy that something finally worked for my underarm sweating. But, as many have stated, side effects are not worth it. Urinary retention, dry mouth, blurred vision, and I don't sweat anywhere else. A shame side effects are so bad."

For Hyperhidrosis "The drug was great at eliminating my sweat problem, but at what cost? I experienced almost all side effects, even the severe. I got hives and was given several antihistamines from doctors because they couldn't figure out why they wouldn't go away. Later to find out that antihistamines have a negative reaction when taken with Qbrexza, so my hives just kept getting worse. Since then, I've experienced terrible dry mouth, urinary tract issues, and just this week began experiencing blurred vision. I went to the eye doctor, and he confirmed it was probably the medication since my pupils were incredibly dilated, which is also a side effect of the medication. I've never had an allergic reaction to any kind of medication. I wish I didn't have this experience with this medication since it does seem to work."

For Hyperhidrosis "First night with Qbrexza, just 1 wipe, and I am having half of the side effects: dry mouth, dry nose, itchy throat, blurred vision. This isn't worth the risk. Now I'm up at 3 a.m. in the morning writing this because I'm uncomfortable and can't go to sleep due to excessive dry mouth and nose... Ugh... Aggravating... I will never try it again."

For Hyperhidrosis "I used this medication for a week, and it really worked. However, on day 5, I got every single side effect to the extreme: dry mouth, throat, eyes, nose, blurred vision, distended bladder, and trouble urinating. I also stopped sweating from all other parts of my body, and when I exercised, my face got extremely red, and I began overheating. The benefits are absolutely not worth enduring the side effects. I won’t even continue trying to stick this out to see if they go away."

For Hyperhidrosis "This medicine was the best until it turned on me. I started having blurry vision for about 2 weeks, to the point I was seeing double and I couldn't work or do anything normal. This all started in August 2022, and today, March 2023, I'm still having to go to the eye doctor. I've been there and spent a lot of money to figure out what's happening with my eyes. This drug made me develop some sort of 'bump' in the back of my eye, and I ended up having to have a brain MRI. Luckily, that came back clear for tumors/cancer, but it still hasn't been a pleasant experience. I haven't been able to wear contacts like I have my whole life until March 2023 since my eyes are still slowly coming back to normal. My scans at the eye doctor are getting better, so things are looking good and shouldn't have any more setbacks, but this drug totally destroyed my eyes for a while before we figured out what was going on. I DO NOT recommend these wipes to anyone."

For Hyperhidrosis "Works wonders, but it’s not tolerable due to the side effects. By far, the worst side effect is the dry mouth/throat that lasts for HOURS. I could barely eat anything because the lack of saliva almost choked me. Even WATER was tough to get down. I also experienced annoying dry eyes and blurry vision. I received 3 sample boxes containing 5 cloths in each box for free from my dermatologist. Side effects kicked in after the first use. The crazy thing is I cut 1 cloth into 8 pieces as instructed and used 1 piece per underarm… that was still too strong! Good luck to those who can tolerate this because it’s not worth it for me. Going back to Botox in my armpits. Costs around $500 where I’m from and lasts about 5 months for no underarm sweating."

For Hyperhidrosis "This product works as other users had indicated, but I am starting to experience blurry vision and dilated pupils to the point where my eyes look scary. Although the product works, the issues with my eyes have me creeped out, so I’m going to be stopping use of this product."

For Hyperhidrosis "Worked for my hyperhidrosis of the palms. My dermatologist suggested giving it a try at night and using one of those wipes in each palm. Provided me with free samples. Worked to get rid of the sweat, but the side effects of this medication are horrible. Blurred vision, dilated pupils, and very sensitive to the light. I’ll take the sweat any time over those side effects! Would not use again!"

For Hyperhidrosis "This worked great for my armpits, but I’ve been sick for two months and only just realized this is the cause of it. Dry mouth/throat, can’t see due to blurry and out of focus, urine retention, infected throat. I've been to my family doctor four times in a month, had two antibiotics, had an ENT scope my nose, had an upper endoscopy in a week, and am about to see a urologist. Multiple blood tests and urine tests were run and all came back fine. It hit me all of a sudden, I thought about these wipes. My family doctor was not aware I used them. The dermatologist refused to accept this is caused by these wipes and wanted me to continue. I will not continue to use this. I’ve literally been sick for two months over these wipes. Barely sleeping because of having to use the bathroom 8-10 times a night."

For Hyperhidrosis "Qbrexza has made my life so much better. I used to sweat through a shirt within 5 minutes of putting it on. I dreaded school and work, where I had to wear uniform shirts that weren’t black. It was so bad that I bought underarm liners to hide the sweating. Now I put on whatever I want and don’t even have to worry about it. The side effects really aren’t that bad. If you want to fix the sweating issue, then you’re going to have to deal with some side effects. I’ve had all the side effects: blurred vision, dry mouth, etc. They go away completely after about a month of use anyway. The only one I’ve noticed has gotten worse is itching. I’d recommend using deodorant without aluminum and fanning the application site after using the wipe. If you don’t let the medication dry, it doesn’t work as effectively."

For Hyperhidrosis "Started with samples of Qbrexza during their trial phase, I’ve been prescribed these wipes for over a year. I endured the horrible side effects: blurred vision, dry mouth (excessively dry, I couldn’t talk or eat and eventually took supplements for dry mouth), but passed through with the thought it could get better and I had a temporary sense of normality. The symptoms never left, and eventually the wipes stopped working for me altogether, I would apply them and endure the stinging but still sweated excessively. Trying Miradry soon."
