I've used Odaban and Drysol. For me, Drysol worked better since it didn't feel as greasy as Odaban did. I believe they're of the same or equal concentration of aluminum chloride.

I tried it and it didn't work for me.

Not much works for me though :roll: :wink:

So ,is there anything else you are using then ?
I found Perspirex worked ok so far , not great but I just started to use it .

And although they all contain Aluminium Choride as the Active ingredient. Perspirex also contained Aluminium Lactate as well. I tried Driclor and Anhy Forte before , they seem to work for the first few weeks but then they lose the effectiveness for some reason !

For Odaban it contain something called Dimethicone (unique ingredient) which make it different to the other , have not tried it yet , but I see how Perspirex goes first!

My experience with odoban is that it performed about aswell as driclor and anhydrol forte (sorry i cannot spell it :oops: ), it irritated my skin the same as the others even with the hair dryer trick.

The big bonus with odoban is that it comes in a pump action spray which is good for covering larger areas such as your back for instance :wink:

I've tried Driclor (Which was the most effective to date, but I think that may have been due to the fact that it was the first strong anti-perspirant that i'd used), it worked for a week well and then after that it just slightly reduces but not much impact.

Also tried perspirex, worked slightly better than Driclor on a day to day and worked for longer, but soon that was a dud too.

Odaban didn't work any better than the above, and soon stopped working faster than the others. So much for the no resistance promise!

Also tried some stuff called Triple Dry that worked in the same way as odaban with the pump spray. Absolute crap.

Then after those I tried various combinations of the stronger mainstream anti-perspirants with the above ones. No noticable improvements in performance there.

I just don't bother anymore :lol:

Hey , dont give up there are plenty more treatments avaliable . But I wouldnt personally go for ETS as I heard that it may cause CS and other side effects such as Horner syndrome. I am using Perspirex at the moment , but if stop working , I will try another treatments (Secure wipes or Glyco Gream) I heard the wipes are very good ..so is defo a possibility.

We are all on the same boat !

Odaban worked well for me. It does cause some skin irritation, but it does the job. Be careful not to apply too much. I found that it worked best using it every other day.

It was also effective if I sprayed it onto a cotton pad and applied it that way.

I'm not really using it any more, because the Secure wipes and Avert tablets have been more effective. They are also much more expensive.

I will try the wipes in 2 weeks time , I am going to order the 2.5mg and 3mg wipes incase the first dosage strength doesnt work. I am not too keen on taking tablets , (I am scare of the systemic effects and I dont like having a dry mouth).

Before then I am using Perspirex and Odaban . Perspirex is working pretty well for me , it definitely reduce the sweating on my hands (up to 70%)I will try Odaban next week and see if that is any better , if not I am visiting pharmacy.ca.

I really hope that they have a banch in the UK
