What is Anhydrol Forte Roll-On Solution?
Anhydrol Forte is designed to be used by people who experience excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis. It works by blocking the sweat ducts in the skin as well as killing bacteria that produce body odour.
The active ingredient in this roll-on solution is aluminium chloride hexahydrate.
What causes hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis can be caused by several different infections and can affect healthy people. Heat is a common cause of hyperhidrosis as well as certain emotions. In the worst cases, hyperhidrosis can affect someone all of the time, regardless of the weather or emotions.
Who is Anhydrol Forte suitable for?
Anhydrol Forte is suitable to be used by children, adults, and the elderly. If you are allergic to aluminium chloride hexahydrate or the other ingredient in this roll-on, industrial methylated spirit.
Is Anhydrol Forte Roll-On Solution suitable for someone pregnant or breastfeeding?
Yes, it is fine to use for someone pregnant or breastfeeding.
How do I use this roll-on antiperspirant?
You should only use Anhydrol Forte on the hands, feet, or armpits. The best time to use it is just before you go to bed. This is because sweat glands are less active when you are asleep. You should apply it for two nights in a row then not use it for two nights and then repeat this method for as long as necessary.
Do not apply the roll on the broken or irritated skin and only apply on dry skin. Do not bathe or shower right before using the roll. Also, do not shave or use any hair removal products for 12 hours after applying Anhydrol Forte.
Are there any side effects?
The most common side effect is skin redness and irritation where the roll has been applied, though this should only be temporary. If you do experience redness when using then try and use the roll-on less often. If any side effects persist long-term then you should contact your doctor. You can also record any side effect that you experience using the MHRA's Yellow Card scheme. For more information, go to the Yellow Card website.
