Hi,
I would love to learn more about oral medication for hyperhidrosis and I have no idea where to start. Is this even a good method to stop excessive sweating?
For the last couple of days I've been trying to learn if meds make a good excessive sweating treatment and still don't know what to think about it.
Seems like the downside are possible side-effects, just like with every other medication. Anticholingeric therapy looked good to me but I would be scared of how it would affect my body. On the other hand, I probably wouldn't qualify for a prescription.
Btw, are there any oral meds that stop excessive sweating but don't require prescription?
What kind of hh do you have? I took oxybutinin which is a generic used for incontinence I believe (I didn't have that issue but it has a drying effect, I'd say its somewhat helpful but its not a miracle by any means!
Hi! I mostly have problems with facial sweating and underarm sweating. My hands and feet can also get bad, but mostly when I’m extremely nervous and anxious. (My hh is often triggered by anxiety.)
