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 "Worked great the first week, and then I got the most horrible rash that keeps getting worse and is spreading, although I stopped taking the medication 10 days ago. My mouth began to get so dry to the point of choking. I am still itchy, red, and irritated, and the rash is spreading down my arms and breasts. Qbrexza stops the sweating, but the side effects are dangerous."

For Hyperhidrosis "I had been on Drysol for years (I'm in my 30s); however, it was becoming increasingly difficult for my pharmacy to get, and the itching on application nights would keep me up. My dermatologist suggested Qbrexza, and I've been pleased, especially as I find the wipes far easier to apply than Drysol. I have a little itching after application, but it's nothing compared to what I experienced with Drysol. I did have severe dry mouth and throat irritation during the first week or so, but I increased my water intake, and this drastically decreased (possibly as my body adjusted to the medication). Everyone responds to medications differently, but for me, the benefits far outweigh the risks."
