I have used both Drysol and Hypercare. Hypercare touts the same results as Drysol but does not deliver.

I have used both Drysol and Hypercare. Hypercare touts the same results as Drysol but does not deliver. With Drysol, I was able to discontinue use of the medication on a regular basis after about a month of use, which lasted about a year. Hypercare has not worked at all, but does produce the same stinging effect as Drysol. I did notice that while using Drysol, I would only sweat excessively if I tried to apply another antipersperant or deodorant in the morning before leaving the house after having Drysol on overnight. Of course, if the medication is working, there is no need to use an antipersperant or deodorant, so it's not a downfall. After I stopped needing to use the Drysol at night, I returned to using deodorant/antiperspirants as usual. I have tried every OTC product out there, and was considering surgery or Botox injections, but the Drysol worked. Should it stop working, I will probably ask for the Botox injection treatments, but until then, I will continue Drysol. To those of you that are considering the cheaper generic Hypercare, please be cautioned that the two are not the same. When compared in my area, the total cost of the Drysol is about $9-$12, whereas the Hypercare is about $6-$8. Obviously, I cannot speak for all pharmacies in all areas, but the difference in effect vastly outweighs the difference in price for me, even if I did not have insurance for the drug. Overall, Drysol is worth it. Hypercare is much less effective, but I think most would agree that any degree of relief from this condition is worth almost anything.

The next day I didn't sweat a single drop when normally my unerarms would be conpletely soaked with sweat. With every application of drysol the discomfort of tingling has decreased and it has remained as effective as the first day of use. Drysol has changed my life and gave me a huge confidence boost. I would strongly recommend it to anybody who has excessive or even just excess sweating that is affecting their personal life and self image.

After four days of using on hands and feet, they still sweat to the point wheere you can visibily see it. Hopefully it will stop soon. It is also very difficult to apply,as its tricky getting out of the bottle w/o spilling.

Much like other reviewers Drysol was a fabulous cure to my sweating problem. I am a woman and I was so embarrassed to sweat from my armpits like I did. I applied Drysol once a month for a year and it was amazing. A little itchy/burning upon application but nothing too horrible. HOWEVER - I noticed that even without using Drysol I had stopped sweating. I haven't used it in over eight months and I d ... Show Full Comment

Much like other reviewers Drysol was a fabulous cure to my sweating problem. I am a woman and I was so embarrassed to sweat from my armpits like I did. I applied Drysol once a month for a year and it was amazing. A little itchy/burning upon application but nothing too horrible. HOWEVER - I noticed that even without using Drysol I had stopped sweating. I haven't used it in over eight months and I do not sweat from armpits. Now I get pimple-like outbreaks on my chest, arms, shoulders and back. I have never had back-acne before. Something is not okay about Drysol, it seems that it has sealed up my sweat glands under my arms. I should have been more careful about what I wished for (or how I treated it) and so should all of you. I can't find anything about this happening to others but I am 100% sure it is a result of using Drysol. Beware!!!
