|

Hi--I have just foot hyperhidrosis, and have been using DC iontophoresis for about 1 month, after exhausting other treatments. So far I have had no success and would appreciate any help that this forum can offer. Below is some information regarding the regimen I have been using.
1. Current 20-25mA for 20min at each polarity (40-50 min total for each session). Have done about 25 sessions over past month. The water level is less than halfway up my toes (very low).
2. For the past 5 treatments, I have added 2 mg of glycopyrrolate to each tray and treated for the same amount of time/current.
3. I live in Pennsylvania (USA) which has moderately hard water, so have not added any baking soda.
4. The skin of the arches of my feet has become somewhat flaky but still sweats. The worst sweating is on the balls of my feet, my toes, and heels.
I feel like I have done everything properly, and still have achieved no success. I am about to abandon all hope, but am open to suggestions regarding modifications to my approach that may achieve success.
Thanks in advance for all help. |

I cannot answer because I don't have special priveleges. I am using a different iontophoresis machine (Fischer), but was hoping for some help nevertheless. Can you itemize the questions in this forum, or grant me access?
Thanks! |
