Voltage issue can be settled very easily. Just buy a simple voltage converter that transforms your household’s electrical current into the type that is required by your iontophoresis machine. 🙂

These converters are pretty cheap and can be bought all over the world, so I think you’re set and I wish you best of luck in getting rid of sweaty hands…[Read more]

What is the name of your iontophoresis machine? Usually iontophoresis for hyperhidrosis should be without any shocks, but I don’t understand what you mean by “automatic” iontophoresis… From the way you describe it, it doesn’t sound like any of the devices I heard of. Unfortunately, it’s possible that the device you bought is simply not good, and…[Read more]

What do you mean being mentioned? Where?
In any case, I saw the website and visited their Facebook page. Their adaptors for face and underarm actually look pretty good and if this worked it could be one of the more versatile iontophoresis machines. The main problem, as I see it, is that this is new, and I can’t find users’ feedback that would…[Read more]

This is very useful. Thank you. 😉
I don’t typically feel like using face wipes – and I don’t really need them, but recently I started running in the mornings. (Well to be fair, it’s really slow jogging…) So, my facial sweating got worse, and since I don’t like wearing a headband, I will buy Maxim wipes and hopefully they will reduce my head sweating. 🙂

Many places to choose from. Usually you can find standard prices at official websites, and cheaper ones on websites like e-bay if you get lucky. When it comes to official sites, I think this is Hidrex manufacturer website, and this here is Idromed website. Yeah, I hope you can read German lol. Just kidding – you can switch the language to English…[Read more]

Hello James, welcome to the site!

I have an idea regarding availability of Hidrex – did you try buying it through e-bay or a similar website? Someone could be selling a used machine… Just an idea. 🙂 And I hope you’ll find a way to treat your hands without harming your skin.

Greetings..! I’d hate to be that person, but… Why don’t you simply use sweat pads? You know, underarm sweat pads that you just set to soak up your sweat and keep your armpits from staining everything. I mean, isn’t that much MUCH more effective than trying to soak up the sweat with baby powder? =D

*captain obvious steps out* 😳

…I’m not laughing! Sounds cool, I know people take apple cider vinegar sometimes in pills, because it is healthy or good for losing weight or what not. No wonder it helps one to sweat less, too.

Btw I sent you a friendship request. I expect to hear all the details on this “culinary” horror. 😈

Ramona, please take care and be cautious about taking medication, especially if you’re planning to get some real hyperhidrosis drugs. I agree with Twinkle, definitely consult your physician first. If everything works out, you’ll get a prescription and will likely be able to get cheaper medication from your local pharmacy. It should be a win-win…[Read more]

Oral medication is the right approach for me because I have plantar and palmar and axillary excessive sweating… Pretty general and difficult to treat with antiperspirants and so on.
My main qualm with medication is that it can cause various side effects… What if there’s a reason why some things are only available through prescription? I don’t…[Read more]

I have tried this about 2 years ago with a borrowed iontophoresis machine (I think it was Hidrex?) and my treatments were semi-successful. Though, I am probably not the best example since I only used iontophoresis to treat armpits for about 2 months, which might be too short.

Anyway, I wanted to say that to me, the biggest issue with this was…[Read more]
