Compensatory Sweating  How to apply ODABAN®

Compensatory sweating often affects large areas of the body and it is sometimes best to consider using a combination of treatments. ODABAN®, however, will certainly help most people and without the side effects of oral medicines or the inconvenience of other treatments. ODABAN® is the treatment of first choice and usually the most effective and safest. How to apply ODABAN® Spray Treatment with ODABAN® antiperspirant is straightforward and usually very effective. The product should be applied only at bedtime after bathing, when relaxed, to DRY skin (use a little talcum powder or a hair dryer).

It is very important the skin is dry, as any moisture will break down ODABAN® to form irritants. Apply ODABAN® sparingly, just one or two sprays indirectly with a cotton wool pad or cotton bud. Compensatory Sweating often occurs on the back and to avoid over application it is best if you receive assistance in applying the product to this area.

The following morning the treated areas should be washed to remove any excess product. ODABAN® contains a silicone to help keep the skin supple, however, a moisturiser can also be used if necessary but not before application or until after the skin has been washed the following morning.

It is critical when first using ODABAN® to avoid applying too much as this will block the sweat ducts completely which will result eventually in a bursting of the “dam walls” and a swift return to the original wetness problem.

Remember apply ODABAN® Spray sparingly, less is more, build your protection slowly using nightly applications until control is established then reduce to the minimum number of treatments per week to remain dry. Most individuals eventually require just two or three applications a week, however, everyone is different, so just take your time and go easy with the amount you use per application
