I sweat all over my body excessive, including face, armpits, stomach. It has gotten worse as I have gotten older. I am in excellant health an have no physical problems causing this problem. I am no more than 20lbs overweight and even when I was extremely thin I still sweated excessive. I tried Drysol yes it worked but I had to apply it all over my body, which is hard and timely. I have read about cutting the nerve supplying the sweat glands, but would prefer a less invasive procedure. Is there any medications available?

Botox will not work since I cannot inject my entire body with it. Botox is only good for isolated area.

I have been to a doctor about it he prescribed Hytrin. This inceases the size of blood vessels and decreases body temperature. This did not work!!

All my clothing is 100% cotten. I prefer cotten since it breathes.

Has anyone tried Oxybutynin Chloride or Glycopyrolate for this problem? I know that they are not designed for this problem but one of the side effects of these medications are they cause a person to STOP SWEATING!!!
