Hyperhidrosis

2021-10-16 11:12:05
I sweat a lot from my head and almost all over my body, I use antiperspirant but I'm seeking for some long term solution, I heard that the medicine Oxybutynin helps you with hyperhidrosis, can I use it and will it have any side effects and what are my other options?
