For Hyperhidrosis "Literally a life-changing product... I've been using it for 3 days, and I'm already 100% satisfied. I tried other products out there, but continued to sweat (armpits) even in the wintertime. 5 minutes out the door and the sweat would go through my shirt, within about an hour, the sweat would go through my entire suit. Was thinking about getting surgery or Botox injections, but somehow stumbled upon a site where I saw Drysol reviews and became cautiously optimistic from the customer reviews that this was my solution. So happy to finally get rid of this terrible condition."

For Hyperhidrosis "Ever since high school, I had suffered greatly from hyperhidrosis, which caused me severe anxiety and discomfort. It wasn't until a friend of mine recommended Drysol at the age of 34 that I finally found a product that helped me. After just one use, I noticed a huge difference, and for the very first time in my life, I was able to go through my day without being constantly paranoid about my armpits. I can now wear whatever I want, no matter the color or fabric, and I have absolutely no issue with excessive sweating. I can't begin to explain how freeing it has been on my anxiety. Although the medication can be extremely itchy during application, it is a small price to pay for this type of relief. I purchased Drysol at a pharmacy, without a prescription, for $26 and have only needed to use it a few times over the past two years. So, in my opinion, the cost is extremely low and affordable and very much worth it. I think this bottle will last me a lifetime."

For Hyperhidrosis "This works amazingly. I've had a problem with sweating for so long, and this was a lifesaver for me. However, if you get it prescribed by a doctor, I recommend that you test how often you put it on yourself. I recently had Hypercare, which, according to my pharmacist, had the same exact ingredients as Drysol, so my doctor told me how much to put on a week, etc. But a horrible burning and redness happened in my armpit, and a lump came about from using it too often. So seriously use this sparingly and test it yourself how often to use it. Everyone is different, so you may only need to use it a couple times a month or week, etc.! Just a warning for new users!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Although Drysol does work, it is also very painful for me. When I apply, and even hours after, I have pain in my armpits. They are completely bumpy with red rashes, and the burning is the worst part. The morning after I apply it, the redness dies down, and so does the pain. The sweating does go away, and this product would be perfect without the horrible side effects it gives me! Overall, I feel that the product is not worth the pain I go through when and after applying."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been using Drysol for close to 16 years now... I love it. My story is very similar to several I have read on this site. I had a terrible problem with underarm sweat - to the point of putting washcloths under my arms. It was so bad I could not wear sweaters in the winter because I would soak them. When I started using Drysol, I had the typical itching and burning for a few weeks. The more I have used it, the less the problem. Now, I only itch if I get too far out from under my armpit and put the solution on skin not used to it. When I first started using Drysol, I was an every-other-day user. Now, in the winter, I can go 6 to 8 days. In the summer, I go 3 to 4 days - I live in Atlanta, GA, and we reached 98 yesterday."

For Hyperhidrosis "I slowly noticed I would be sweating even when I was laying down doing nothing. I knew something was up when I was freezing cold but sweating like a pig. Only my underarms. It got so bad I had to start putting paper towels in my shirts, otherwise, my shirt would be soaked, and I’d have to change it. Let’s just say I was miserable. I didn’t think there was a cure for it. I basically accepted it. Then my best friend told me her husband has hyperhidrosis. So I did my research and went to see the doc. Turns out that’s what I have. She prescribed me Drysol. I didn’t think it would work. I tried all OTC ones. Nothing worked. I am amazed with this. The first night I tried it, I woke up the next day with no sweat. DRY! I was so happy. The only downfall is the itching and burning. I only had some slight redness. This is my second night I’ve done it. So I’m going to take a break and see how long I can go. But so far, it’s been a miracle. And I feel so much happier. Highly recommend."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been suffering from hyperhidrosis for 15 years. My scalp would literally sweat like a broken faucet. I would constantly have to wipe the perspiration off my head every few seconds. It was so embarrassing! A pharmacist recommended Drysol, and after the first application, I was sweat-free. I couldn't believe it! I have a new lease on life. I can finally not have to carry napkins around and be worried about sweating in front of the public. If you suffer from severe sweating of the scalp, please, I repeat, please give Drysol a try-you won't be sorry. I give this product a rating of an eleven out of ten!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I've been using this product for only 3 weeks, but I strongly recommend it! I used it 3 days in a row at first. Before I went to bed, I applied it on my underarms, let it dry, threw on a t-shirt, and went to bed. Like some of you, I also experienced some burning/itching sensation. The first day, it was very mild, but the third day it was bad but not unbearable. After that, I'm just applying it 2x a week. It's a life changer. Before, I couldn't even wear the tops I wanted, it was embarrassing walking around with those huge sweat stains on my underarms. But now, I can wear what I please. There's no need to put up with that anymore."

For Hyperhidrosis "This stuff has been a complete lifesaver for me. I have severe craniofacial hyperhidrosis, and it's absolute hell going to work and having to hide my face every time I have a sweating episode. I have to step out several times just to splash water on my face or run cold water over my wrists. Drysol is a game-changer and is the only thing that's worked for me. It only took about 3 days of application to fully work."

For Hyperhidrosis "I've had severe underarm sweating since puberty. It was so embarrassing and got worse with time. I used Drysol for the first time yesterday after realizing I truly needed a prescription antiperspirant, and WOW! I couldn't be happier. The FIRST DAY I wore a shirt in my most feared color (gray) and had NO sweat all day. I couldn't believe how well it worked! I admit to discomfort upon application, but it goes away shortly and is well, well worth it. I'll be a lifetime user. Incredible."

For Hyperhidrosis "This stuff is amazing! Everyone in the world who suffers from hyperhidrosis should use this product! I started sweating excessively in the 10th grade, and I tried every antiperspirant on the market (and a substantial amount of home remedies), and absolutely NOTHING worked. In the spring of my senior year, I decided to see a doctor about it. He prescribed Drysol, and I started using it that night. It took a few days to work, and it itched and burned pretty badly, but now I'm in college, and I never have to worry about what to wear or sitting through a lecture. Bone dry every day! Drysol rocks!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I've always sweat a lot, and it's super embarrassing. I couldn't wear light-colored shirts because I'd have giant pit stains, and after a few wears, the shirts would become stained yellow and were basically ruined. It was awful, and I was so self-conscious all the time. I've tried every brand of extra strength antiperspirants, and though some work better than others, none worked well enough for me. This works wonders for me. I don't sweat anymore! Something I never thought I'd be able to say. Drysol has been a total life-changer for me, and now I'm happy to buy clothing again! I couldn't recommend this product enough. It's wonderful!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Struggled considerably with excessive sweating starting at age 14. A close friend told me in college about how well Rx Drysol had worked for her, so I talked with my doctor. Long story short: after using Drysol exactly as prescribed during my 20s and 30s, my underarm sweating was 100% eradicated. Was able to switch to over-the-counter antiperspirants/deodorants for decades. Only now, pushing sixtysomething, did I need to request another Rx for Drysol after noticing some perspiration begin. After only a few applications, that problem too was solved! Drysol = an unforgettable quality-of-life improvement! Would 1,000% recommend it to anyone struggling with excessive sweating. PS. Cardinal Rule: APPLY DRYSOL SPARINGLY!!"

For Hyperhidrosis "I finally was able to use Drysol after years of dealing with excessive sweating. The first night I used it, I felt very mild itching about 40 minutes after application. The next day, I didn’t sweat at all! The following night, I applied the same amount to my underarms and dealt with EXTREME burning and a red rash that lasted hours. Drysol definitely works, but be careful if you have any skin sensitivities or don’t want to deal with the excruciating pain :("

For Hyperhidrosis "I have excessive underarm sweating, and I thought I would give Drysol a go, which is an over-the-counter medicine here in Canada. I was hoping that it would work, and I could wear clothes instead of putting on jackets in the summer. On my first application, I dried my armpits and slowly applied it around my armpit and only noticed a little tingling sensation at first. During the night, it itched a little bit, but nothing too bad. The next day, I noticed I was still sweating, so I thought it would work the next day. On the 3rd night I applied it, my armpit started to burn really badly. It burned to the point where I couldn't sleep all night, and I was still sweating like before."

For Hyperhidrosis "'This product is flat-out amazing.' As a teen, I was always conscious about my sweaty hands. Rejecting people whenever they reached out for a handshake was more than embarrassing, but I still did it, and people would always comment. But when I found Drysol, I didn't think it would work for me and ignored all of the 10 ratings. I gave it a shot though, and it WORKED within the next day I applied it. I experienced no irritation on my hands, but it may be different for other people. This thing does what it says it does, and BELIEVE ME. With consistent use within the first few days, your hands will be bone dry, and you begin to realize that you need to apply it less and less. Thanks to Drysol, I'm literally reborn and anxiety-free."

For Hyperhidrosis "Drysol has been a lifesaver for me! I was always afraid to ask my doctor about my sweating, but after I did and she prescribed me this, I've not been sweating like before. This has been going on for about 15 years, and I am just now getting relief. It started working after my first application, but I still use it maybe once every week or two weeks. I can now wear colored shirts instead of only black, white, or see-through shirts that don't show sweat stains. I highly recommend this product to anyone suffering with any kind of sweating."

For Hyperhidrosis "Drysol has seriously changed my life! I have excessive sweating on my scalp and face. No matter where I went, sweat would be pouring down my face like a waterfall. The biggest issue I had with the sweating was at work as I was serving food, and obviously, nobody wants to be served by the sweaty girl. Some days I didn't even want to go to class because my face would be dripping with sweat. I was recommended Drysol by a dermatologist, but I was told that it would sting a lot, but I was willing to try anything. Let me warn you that it burns like crazy. You will want to wash it off, but stay strong, it is worth it. I applied it on my face for 3 nights and my scalp for 2 nights, and I am dry as a bone!!! Drysol has forever changed my life."

For Hyperhidrosis "I have been afflicted with hyperhidrosis for over a decade. A pharmacist told me about Drysol. I followed the product's directions and applied it before bedtime for three consecutive nights. To test it, I ate very spicy food. In the past, my head would have been drenched, but it was totally bone dry. Drysol is a godsend! It is truly a miracle cure. I will follow the directions and apply it once or twice a week. It really alters and shrinks the sweat glands. I can't say enough great things about this fabulous product. My life has really changed for the better. Thanks from the bottom of my heart, Drysol makers!"

For Hyperhidrosis "This is hands down the best thing that has ever happened in my life. My problem areas are my hands and feet. They would sweat so bad, the sweat would appear through my sandals, and my hands would stick to my paper when writing in school. So embarrassing. I used Drysol for 3 consecutive nights, and after the 3rd night, I was sweat free! I did not experience burning and itching until the third night, and, boy, was it uncomfortable to sleep in. I now only use it once a week, but will cut down later on in the year. Drysol did make my hands very dry to the point when I rub them together, the dead skin/flakes would fall off (and a lot of it). I am in search of a good hand cream, but I am in no rush because dry hands are better than sweaty ones."

For Hyperhidrosis "I cannot relate how much this product has changed my life. I'm 31 years old and for years have been embarrassed and frustrated with my underarm sweat-like a fountain, nothing less. All my clothes, especially my sweaters, were ruined with sweaty odors. Countless hours laundering in vinegar and baking soda! Thought I would have to live with this for the rest of my days-you can't even smell your own perfume, all you smell is your sweat and last week's sweat trapped in your freshly washed clothes. I found DRYSOL after Googling my hyperhidrosis, and after two applications I'm blown away at how good life is with dry armpits. I'M CURED! Thanks so much, DRYSOL, this is a wonder product, I'm so grateful to the makers."

For Hyperhidrosis "Around the age of 12, I started noticing how much I was sweating, and it wasn't normal. I was sweating the most under my arms, hands, and feet. It was so bad I'd be embarrassed to shake someone's hand, wear sandals, and colored shirts. I'd feel sweat drip under my arms, and my hands would leave sweat marks on my desk/papers. I told my dermatologist, and he recommended Drysol. I've been using it for 4 days, and I can genuinely tell you it's helped about 75%. I'm really pleased because my sweating was way worse than most people with hyperhidrosis, and nothing else was helping me (certain dry, Hypercare). However, some nights when I apply it, my underarms are burning and itching, but I try not to touch it & just go to sleep. I strongly recommend it."

For Hyperhidrosis "I've had excessive sweating in my armpits since middle school. I was always the girl who couldn't wear long sleeves or T-shirts. I'd even sweat in a tank top during winter! So horrible and so embarrassing! I am 21 now, and over a year ago, my doctor prescribed Drysol, and it has worked miracles for me. I can wear anything I want and in any color because I don't even have one drop of sweat. I'm so thankful, and I hope that anyone with excessive sweating can hear about Drysol sooner than later for the same help!"

For Hyperhidrosis "Ok, so I’ve been suffering with hyperhidrosis for as long as I remember, maybe 8th grade. Well, I’m in my 30s, and I used Drysol for the first time last night. Today, no unnecessary sweating or anxiety about it. Will continue use. Side effects: it burns like anything, and I did have some rashes from it. I’m a Black woman, and this is a game changer for my face and pits!"

For Hyperhidrosis "You won't believe this, but I decided to use Drysol on my face and head, which is where I sweat the most. My son was getting married outside in August in New York, and I knew I'd look awful being so sweaty. So I put Drysol on my forehead, above my lip, and in my hair. And not a drop of sweat! However, as I was about to walk down the aisle, I felt water running down the back of my knees and in the small of my back. I guess the sweat has to go somewhere! Love it!"
