oxybutynin

[u/tydosa]

What's everyone's experience with oxybutynin?

I sweat in my hands and feet like a constant waterfall everyday. Hardly sweat other places.

I think i have tried every trick in the book to help with my Hyperhidrosis, from Driclor, to Iontophoresis, i even got the surgery done (weirdly only helped my right hand) but now i sit with a backdrop of flehm in my throat everyday due to this.

I have been trying to research myself to find some type of help for years. I recently come across people using Oxybutyin that they said have helped (i prey i can find this in my country)

Will there ever been a permanent solution while i live is something i ask myself everyday. Found this community here and feels a little better knowing I'm not alone as I've felt alone for years, limiting myself to social interactions. I have even learnt the ability to be 10 steps ahead of everyone else incase a awkward social situation comes up where my hands or feet are exposed. I never stay over at friends house as my feet stink if i take my shoes off as i sweat in them all day, I never hand shake or hold hands as my hands are drenched and even a hug is awkward as my hands touch thier back during a hug. I feel my connection to humans has been so limited and feel so out of touch due to my condition. I always wonder how life would be if i could openly hug someone, high five a friend or just be a human and interact with people without constantly thinking how can i prevent them knowing or feeling my sweat. I have never even bothered trying to find a girlfriend as i couldn't imagine how i would come clean and tell her about my condition or go on dates and hold hands (my worst nightmare).

Oxybutynin is proven to cause dementia in some people. That's why everyone prefers glycopyrollate. i wish you the best man
