Feet  How to apply ODABAN® Spray to the feet

Treatment with ODABAN® Antiperspirant is straightforward and usually completely 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 directly or indirectly using a cotton wool pad or cotton bud.

As the skin on the feet is relatively thick a little more ODABAN® can be applied per treatment if required, the cling-film / Saran wrap technique using a lightly soaked cotton pad held in position over night will also help increase the drying effect.

The following morning the treated areas should be washed to remove any excess product. A moisturiser and other treatments for the foot can be used in conjunction with ODABAN® but not prior to application or until 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 in an eventual bursting of the “dam walls” and a swift return to the original wetness problem.

Try to always wear shoes and fabrics that “breathe” and wick moisture away from the foot area.

Remember to apply 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 one or two applications a week. Everyone is different so just take your time and go easy with the amount you use per application. Individuals who do not suffer from Hyperhidrosis will find just one application of ODABAN® Antiperspirant will keep them dry for a week or more.

ODABAN® Foot and Shoe Powder will also help protect the feet and footwear against unpleasant odours, it is extremely effective and long lasting.
