Palmer hyperhidrosis is giving me such a hard time...

[g35]

i've had hyperhidrosis since i was maybe 5 or something, i'm 21 now and it's affecting my social life. i sweat in mainly three areas, feet, pits and hands, feet and arm pit is not such a big deal to me (i use strong antiperspirant which keeps my arm pit sweat to the minimum and the feet sweat isn't such a big deal for me so i just let it be. However, palmer hyperhidrosis is what's fucking my social life up, i can't concentrate during tests cuz half the time i'd be trying to figure out a way to not soak the exam paper haha. anyway, i ordered drysol last week and it should arrive soon, I'm not expecting miracles from it but i figured i'd give it a shot. I'm really interested in Robinul, i was reading this forum and couple others, this product seems to be able to handle palmer hyperhidrosis quite well i assume? do you think i should try it? the only concern i have is how it causes drowsiness and my pupils can't focus? I'm not sure if it's true i'm basing this off reviews. If it's true then it might be a problem since i have to drive to school and I would like to be able to focus in class. so let me sum up some questions:

1) Is Drysol effective for palmer hyperhidrosis?
2) Where can I order Robinul? (i'm in the US, do I need a prescription?)
3) Can i take Robinul before I go to sleep so i won't be affected by the side effects?
4) Is Robinul effective for palmer hyperhidrosis?
5) Can Robinul be used everyday? Is it damaging for my health?

Thx a lot for reading, i'm looking forward to your feedback!

if i were you i'd try iontophoresis first before using rodinal. Drysol and other antiperspirant aren't really that effective for palmer sweating although it depends on how bad it is. Get yourself a decent iontophoresis machine and that should cut the sweating down a lot. Rodinal has side effects like dry mouth and more serious side effects i think so it shouldn't be taken if something else can solve the problem.

HI, I as well am having a hard time as its getting warmer with HH

1. Drysol is moderately effective, it will probably only stop 50-60% but it is worth it for me. now it only stops about 30% (it has lost some of its affectiveness)
2. Yes you need a perscription (if you get it tell me how it goes!)
3.Dont know
4. I have heard of people sucessfully treating palmar HH with Robinul, youll probably have to combine it with something else though
5. ask your dermotologist (i would like to know as well)

Sorry I cant be of more help, I'm 19 and I know exactly what you are talking about. I just ordered sweat-stop 'instant' lotion, it looks to be promising, you might want to look into it. 3
