Customer Rating: Summary: Certain-Dri will Work in Most Instances of Heavy Sweating Comment: I have used Certain-Dri for about 5 years now. It is a milder version of the prescription strength Drisol, an aluminum chloride product.
I apply it to my underarms about every other day. It does not need to be used each day. In fact, if I use it every day, my underarm tissue becomes inflammed, dry, may crack, and be painful.
Certain-Dri works best if it applied at night before bedtime. I have noticed upon application that the solution may burn a tiny bit, especially if I do not air out my armpits and get the solution to dry. If I leave it wet (closing my armpits with my arms), it may burn a bit and also cause an itching sensation. If so, I spread it around with the palm of my hand and air dry the area and then the pain goes away.
No doubt about it - it works! It will dry out underarms (that is the only place I have used it). I imagine it will work on other areas of the body just as well.
Certain-Dri does not have much of an odor to it, so I do recommend using a scented deodorant or anti-perspirant in addition to Certain-Dri.
I think you will be pleased with the results. If it does not work for you, then I would recommend you upgrade to Drisol, which your doctor can prescribe for you.
Jim Koenig Customer Rating: Summary: Works Great! Comment: Stops the awful/excessive pit sweating. No more embarrasment from underarm pit stains and excessive wetness. It did burn some for the first few times I used it, but it was minor. Doesn't burn anymore. Use it at bed-time, it works for 2 or 3 days depending on weather/activities. I still put on regular deodorant too. Customer Rating: Summary: not for everyone! Comment: great for the average sweater, however, i am not. drysol is the product for me. Customer Rating: Summary: Great price, great item that works : ) Comment: I bought this for my husband and myself to use. We each have a bottle and it works great. We apply this once or twice weekly and use the daily version in between. We are very happy with this product and plan on to continue using it. I would recommend it to others, be sure and read all reviews to get some pointers...
