Do not shave armpits or use a hair removing preparation within twenty-four hours either before or after treatment. Do not apply to broken or irritated skin. Apply Anhydrol Forte or Driclor at night, just prior to going to bed and wash off thoroughly in the morning. It should be used for two nights in succession, followed by a rest period of two nights with no application. This alternating two night treatment cycle should be used to assess your own individual respons, and it may be necessary to increase or decrease the usage to control your condition.
Some patients manage on one to two treatments per week once the condition is under control.
Some transient irritation and redness normally accompanies a reduction in sweating. However, should this irritation become excessive, stop treatment and, if necessary, consult your Doctor. Care should be taken to avoid the preparation coming into contact with clothing, linen, jewellery, metal or polished surfaces.
