Drysol Dab-O-Matic Description

Are you embarrassed to raise your arms, remove your shoes, or you are constantly mopping your face as perspiration is running into your eyes. You should talk to your doctor about hyperhidrosis, a medical condition that causes excessive sweating even though you are not overdressed, stressed out, or taking part in any strenuous activities. Sweat glands can affect your feet, hands, and armpits and you may be able to control it with strong over the counter antiperspirants and deodorants, but Drysol Dab-O-Matic Mild with Aluminum Chloride can help you overcome the symptoms of hyperhidrosis.

Aluminum Chloride Helps to Control Excessive Sweating

Treatment with Drysol-Dab-O-Matic Mild usually starts with dabbing it on the problem areas nightly until you feel the sweating is under control. Your doctor may then recommend using it once or twice a week to maintain sweat control. The active ingredient of Drysol-Dab-O-Matic Mild is called Aluminum Chloride and it is formulated in Anhydrous Ethyl Alcohol. It acts to form a gel that will gently stop the sweat from getting out and will not block the pores completely.

Uses for Drysol Dab-O-Matic Mild

In most cases of primary hyperhidrosis, there is no reason or cause found. It does seem to run in families and it tends to be symmetrical in that it affects both feet, both hands, or both armpits. Secondary hyperhidrosis can occur as a result of a spinal injury or another medical condition that can cause you to sweat in one hand, a leg, and so on. Generalized hyperhidrosis can result from such things as anxiety conditions, cancer, medications, and heart or lung disease. The sweating can affect all over your body or targets one area.

Before Drysol-Dab-O-Matic Mild is Prescribed

Explain other medical conditions or allergies you have to your doctor and list any OTC or Rx drugs you currently take or use, including herbal remedies and vitamin or dietary supplements to be certain Drysol-Dab-O-Matic Mild is right for you.
