I am starting this thread as a personal log for my iontophoresis treatments. It's more for myself, but I felt it might be of interest to others also, so I'm posting it up here. If you want any advice, or have any to share, feel free to post.
A little background: I suffer from pretty severe palmar/plantar HH. Since starting iontophoresis treaments back in 2008, I've developed very mild compensatory sweating in my armpits and groin/thigh region. It's very mild and causes me very little annoyance.
I discovered Avert (glycopyyrolate) around 2004 and used it almost daily until 2008, when I began iontophoresis treatments. I hated using Avert because of the side effects, but it was effective and definitely better than nothing.
I purchased a Drionic unit in 2008 and continue to use it to this day with success. I do however, plan on purchasing a more expensive unit within the next month or two, which will hopefully be even more effective and be easier to clean.
I will try to update this first post with any pertinent information that comes to mind later on. Right now, I'm short on time so just wanted to begin this log to begin with.
