  • Title: Current and emerging therapeutic modalities for hyperhidrosis, part 1: conservative and noninvasive treatments.
    Author: Ram R, Lowe NJ, Yamauchi PS.
    Journal: Cutis; 2007 Mar; 79(3):211-7. PubMed ID: 17674587.
    Abstract:
    Approximately 1% to 3% of the US population has hyperhidrosis (HH). HH can be an incapacitating medical condition because it not only hinders patient quality of life but also causes the secondary effect of excess cutaneous sweat. There is a broad spectrum of treatment modalities including topical and systemic therapies, iontophoresis, localized neuroinhibitory injections, and surgical interventions. This article reviews HH and the conservative treatments for the condition.
