    There is another great product out there called Dri Clor, available in most pharmacies. Years ago I had a similar problem. Tried all the products mentioned, but this worked so well for me at the time..

    I used it for about a month, then stopped, and I've never had a problem since.

    One thing about it though, is it can sting a lot, (but I knew it was working!) I found the way to stop this was to apply the Dri Clor, then after a few seconds apply baby talcum powder. No more stinging.

    I hear that Botox in the affected areas, works like magic too!

    I hope this might help..

    I am another Mitchum fan. I agree it looks expensive but a bottle of the roll on last for months and months.

    I was going to suggest botox - my niece had it done in London and it cost £400 (£200 per armpit)it lasts for several months. You still have to use a spay or stick though. The botox just controls the wetness. Some people have strong BO but do not sweat much and botox is no good for them

    Dri Clor works. It stops excessive sweating. Ask your pharmacist about it :-)

    Another vote for DriClor here. It can sting like hell though, you shouldn't shave your armpits for a few days beforehand and DEFINITELY not on the same day! :eek:

    I only have to use it 2 or 3 times a year now, it is really effective. I'll try the baby powder tip next time!

    I love the Mitchum spray range as well.

    Thanks mum2one - I'll pop in to Tesco tomorrow :T
  • Another vote for Mitchum! I use either the solid or the spray and both have been brilliant!
    Everyone has a dark side... apparently mine is called Harold?!? :huh:
  • Triple dry anti-perspirant - really good!
