In reply to facial sweating due to drugs- antiperspirant?, posted by delna on September 2, 2003, at 1:56:37
> hi
> wondering if anyone has found an antiperspirant that can be used on the face. facial sweating is driving me mad and i did hear something about a new product on the market.
> anyone?
> thnx dAntiperspirants can be very toxic to certain parts of our bodies, and the aluminum use in particular is very controversial. There was a story from a few years back of a young teen who everyday covered himself from head to toe with antiperspirant spray (he was embarrased by sweating so much), and the toxic effects ended up poisining him. The last place I would ever use this stuff is on my face. As someone else said, try baby powder or check with your pharmacist, or even try a 'natural' rememdy, but just like with any drug, natural or not, you must be careful.
Best,
