Nonchalante underarm pads

I've been using them for a while and I used to buy them from Amazon. Just realized that there is sale on their site and it's much cheaper if you buy more than 1 box. That option doesn't exist on Amazon.

Thats £1 a day to help with sweating, have you tried all the medical alternatives like Iontophoresis or if that doesnt work, a bromide cream.

Of course there are injections as well or surgery

Presumably it didn't improve the hyperhidrosis, just the odour?

It works out cheaper than £0.5 per day. I buy 4 boxes and they can last more or less 5 weeks. I'm not too keen on chemicals in creams and antiperspirants and I have a really sensitive skin so I'm avoiding that route. I did try odaban and Driclor but it's not for me. It was very itchy and painful experience. I don't sweat too much and wouldn't call my condition hyperhidrosis but I sweat enough to have those horrible wet patches on my shirt. Those pads are just about right solution for me. I don't think they would be suitable for somebody who sweats too much. They are more for moderate sweating.

It stopped her sweating as much. She didn't have an issue with odour.

I don't particularly find this funny.

For people who actually have a need for these - they are really bloody useful and work well - in fact for me, its the only thing that does help.

And yes.. I have tried all medical things (and all the deodrants under the sun) including Botox. The only medical thing I haven't tried is an operation - and that’s only because of previous op's on other parts of the body.

Thanks OP

I use anhydrol forte or triclor, both aluminium chloride hexahydrate, dries out the skin but works great for hyperhydrosis, also free on prescription, thank you NHS

Sweating is the body's way of cooling us down. By using chemicals on our armpits and blocking up the gland we're giving a wrong message to the body. But on the other hand I agree with you, this can be a very embarrassing problem and everybody's trying to find solution that suit them best. What I don't understand from your post is how can you get it from the NHS for free? These days nothing is for free.

prescriptions are free in Scotland, although the stuff lasts so long I get a bottle once a year or so. I know it's not great for your body but we're all going to die at some point, I'd rather enjoy life while I'm young, if my body gives up later then I can deal with that
