Does anyone use deodorants for excessive sweating?

Hey there
I've started using a v. strong deodorant [like drysol] that contains a lot of aluminium, for the past three months. Are there any side effects involved?
I sweat A LOT, like even during the winter, but I'll try to refrain from using this deodorant when it's cold. Just wondering how other people deal with excessive sweating...

There is a new medical treatment for those with excessive sweating, the Dr injects Botox in the arm pit area and it's supposed to really help. I don't know how long it lasts, though, or the cost involved.

well, although i dont sweat THAT much....i sweat more at the moment in 35C heats...i tend to apply talc to places where i get most sweaty.....that helps stay dry to a certain extent e.g. in leg creases, underneath breasts etc..u get the idea!

Give it a go

I used to think I was the only person in my school with HUGE sweat marks on my shirts...all I could wear were black t-shirts : (. I am extremely grateful for these kinda deodorants. The thing that bothers me though is that some say they can cause cancer and alzheimers....what does anyone think?
