I have been taking this drug for about 3 years now for my head sweat. I take one 1mg pill in the morning on an empty stomach. I don't eat until at least 1.5 hrs later. So far, it has kept me dry. Does anyone know of the long term side effects, such as kidney damage or other damages to the system?

I have excessive head sweating and the dermatologist indicated to take only 1 pill daily and if the need occurs, to inc ... Show Full Comment
