The difficulties associated with excessive sweating can be overwhelming and embarrassing for people suffering from hyperhidrosis. Certain Dri is a topical antiperspirant that works well in dealing with excessive sweating. Like all medications, however, Certain Dri may have side effects.

Certain Dri is an antiperspirant that is made from aluminum chloride. Aluminum chloride is a topical medication that is used in many products to treat excessive sweating, and is applied to the skin.

Aluminum chloride works by essentially "plugging" the sweat glands so that sweat cannot escape. Certain Dri is applied at night, when sweat glands are most inactive, so that the solution has ample time to plug the sweat glands.

You should familiarize yourself with any diseases and conditions that may be impacted by use of Certain Dri. If you are pregnant, taking any medications, or have any allergies, you should consult a doctor before attempting to use Certain Dri.

The most common side effects associated with Certain Dri are temporary burning, itching, prickling, and tingling in areas treated with Certain Dri. Possible serious side effects include severe allergic reactions, which may be evidenced by rash, hives and difficulty breathing. If minor side effects persist, or a severe allergic reaction occurs, contact your doctor.

Only a doctor or a pharmacist will be able to tell you for certain if Certain Dri is right for you. If you have any questions or concerns about using Certain Dri, contact a health care professional.
