Sweating is becoming a problem?

Question

I am on a medicine that causes me to sweat. ALOT. Not my hands or feet (thank goodness) but I go to a store and all I do mop my face and forehead. It's humiliating!
I become drenched just washing the dishes or sweeping the floor. My entire body drips with it. I always have cold air around me.
I rarely went out this summer because the ac was broke.
I went to a law school graduation and sweated all my makeup off. My hair was wet like I splashed water on it. In front of 200 ppl's family's all dressed up looking perfectly snotty and I look like a wet bum!
I started crying and refused to go to the after party.
If its muggy I sweat more.
They only have special deoderant for hands/feet. Not entire bodies.
I can't go off my medicine.
I also can't live like a recluse at the age of 30.
I am seriously straining my relationship.
I shower often, use powder, wear light weight cotton, change clothes 2x a day.
Is there a medicine for chronic body sweating?
herbal or prescription?

Answer 1

Your condition is called hypoidrosis. There is medication but as usual you would have to see your doctor. Of course since it is due to the medication that you are taking right now, you can always ask your doctor to change to something else. Side affects do occur with most medications so you may try several before you find one that does not bother you so much. Just speak to your doctor.
