How To Stop Sweating – Addressing Excessive Sweating

How to stop sweating is a recurrent question asked among sufferers of a serious medical condition called hyperhidrosis. Fortunately, there are a number of ways to control this condition.

{Topical Medications}

Topical antiperspirants are perhaps the most common solutions to excessive sweating. These are typically available without doctor’s prescription and come in varieties of strength. There are discrepancies in the effectiveness of each type of OTC antiperspirant.

The most effective OTC antiperspirants are those that are made to control even the worst cases of hyperhidrosis. These come at a much higher price but are definitely more effective than standard varieties.

Another type of antiperspirants is the prescription-strength antiperspirant. This contains high concentration of aluminum chloride hexahydrate, a compound that work to plug pores and sweat glands, effectively controlling the amount of sweat released from hyperactive areas.

Although these products work very well, patients often have to experiment on two or more products before they find one that works best for their body.

If sweating comes with body odor, it may not be a bad idea to use a deodorant to control the smell. Deodorants do not necessarily control sweating but these mask the smell that often develop as the result of bacterial presence in the sweat.

{Oral medications}

If hyperhidrosis roots from other parts of the body except the underarms, the best solution maybe is to use oral medications. Symptoms may also appear on the face, the palms and the feet where high concentration of sweat glands are located. Called anticholinergics, this family of drugs controls acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter to prevent excessive sweating. These are very effective but most physicians refrain from prescribing them as these often cause adverse side effects like constipation, heart palpitations, blurring and drying of the mouth.

{Botulinum Toxin Injection}

Few people know that BOTOX injection, a very popular cosmetic procedure, is also used to correct excessive sweating. By nature, BOTOX or Botulinum toxin, is a toxic substance that can prevent muscle movements.

As treatment for hyperhidrosis, 20 shots of BOTOX can effectively prevent the sweating of the underarms for at least 6 months. BOTOX closes the pores of the area where it is injected. There is one thing undesirable about BOTOX, though, it can be very uncomfortable. This procedure is most effective for treatment of axillary and gustatory hyperhidrosis.

{Iontophoresis}

Why a weird-sounding medical procedure works so well against sweating, nobody knows. This procedure makes use a piece of wool and a battery-powered device to deliver appropriate dosage of charged bioactive agents or drugs into the skin being treated. This procedure is simply an injection technique that does not use needles.

{Surgical Intervention}

Not all cases of hyperhidrosis respond well to medications and non-invasive procedures. Sometimes, patients have to undergo surgical procedures. Surgeries for hyperhidrosis work in 2 ways – they either interrupt the nerve signals that trigger the sweat glands to produce and secrete sweat or remove the sweat glands altogether.

There are many answers to ‘how to stop sweating‘. Among the most common methods are those mentioned above.
