Customer Reviews of Maxim Prescription Strength Antiperspirant & Deodorant - Doctor and Dermatologist RecommendedCustomer Review: Miracle Summary: 4 Stars
This product is a dream come true. I've been sweating since since grade and now I'm about to go off to college and I was dreading not being able to wear my school colors at basketball games because of my sweating. I've been living my life in black and white clothes or fabrics that don't show wetness. I couldn't even wear a colorful dress to my senior prom and I steered away from jobs that required a uniform colored polo shirt knowing that I couldn't wear it without being embarrassed. I was considering spending the money I received from graduation to have sweat-gland removal surgery, but was defeated when I couldn't find a local doctor to do it.
Then, I came on this website to find some sweat guards to put in my shirts and this product popped up on the bottom of the screen. It was expensive and I was skeptical having tried many other products including Certain Dri, but I thought I would give an antiperspirant one more shot. It was the best decision I made.
The product does have its drawbacks, but I think they're worth it. It is a little expensive and it can burn and itch like crazy when you put it on. The first week is the worst, but then you start to get used to it and it isn't so bad. I've noticed that after I shave and use it I develop a little rash, so you should wait to use it again. If you skip a day or two, it still works. My sweating hasn't stopped completely, but it is minimal enough now that a normal drug store deodorant/antiperspirant takes care of it.
It does hurt a little, but right now I'm wearing a green shirt for the first time since elementary school. I still can't believe my sweating is gone. I keep checking my underarms out of habit and am always so pleased to see them dry at last. Extra Strong Maxim Anti-Perspriant & Deodorant Clinical Strength Clear Unscented
Customer Review: Great product with great results Summary: 5 Stars
I have had hyperhydrosis since middle school. Generally I'm in good health. I eat balanced meals, go to the gym several times a week. I'm a little overweight, but not too bad. It's really embarrassing to constantly have wet armpits. Every time I see a shirt wet, I feel fat and dirty. And it's hard to explain to strangers in public or people in passing that it's a metabolic/thyroid thing. I can be sitting on my couch in full air conditioning naked and I will still sweat - like POOLS of sweat. On my worst days at work (wearing a long sleeve shirt, tie and jacket) I have taken my jacket off when I got home and my shirt was wet down to my waistline. I have ruined hundreds of dollars in shirts. I have tried many "clinical strength" deodorants and countless products. This has been the first product that I have seen noticeable results from. I bought one to try and after two weeks of using it, I ordered three more to have. Applying it at night before bed, I am able to shower in the morning and apply a small amount of regular deodorant, get dressed and go to work. By lunchtime, I may only have a small amount of sweat showing on my shirt (about the size of a quarter). This product has made a huge difference in my life. I don't have to wear sweaters or jackets all the time now to hide wet underarms on my shirts. I'm not worried about ruining my shirts with stains and discolored armpits. I have only been using this product for about three weeks now, and notice a huge difference already. Some products that I've used in the past have burned, irritated my skin, made me break out, but this one doesn't. It itches when you first apply for about 10 minutes, but then everything is fine. This product is really an amazing thing. I definitely recommend for any hyperhydrosis sufferers out there.
Customer Review: I can't beleive it, but it actually works! Summary: 5 Stars
Okay, so I don't know how to write this so that people will actually believe me but I'll give it a shot. I'm a 25 yr old female, average weight and height but I used to sweat buckets under my arms! It could be cold out, it could be warm, it could be neutral, it didn't matter, my underarms were sweating. Day, night, as soon as I got out of the shower my underarms began to perspire. When I shopped I passed by shirts that I new would show the sweat, but the embarrassment was only part of it, the discomfort of always wearing a wet shirt was unbearable, I changed shirts several times a day. I was skeptical when I bought Maxim and I thought it was pretty expensive but I was willing to try anything! I applied the product just before bed as directed and the first thing I noticed was the itching and discomfort but I figured "hey if I'm feeling this, it must be doing something" I had a little trouble sleeping the first night because of this but again, I was willing to go through anything for a product that worked. The next day I put on a shirt that I KNEW showed sweat every time I wore it and I waited. I waited all day for sweat and it didn't come! So I thought maybe it was a fluke. Again I applied the product and again it itched at night but since it seemed to work I kept using it. It's been 28 days since I started using the product and the only time I have sweat was the one day that I forgot to apply it the previous night. Even then it was not a lot. This past week I started using it every other day and the itching when I apply it has stopped and the product lasts even on the off days, I still do not sweat and I feel like a new person! I will keep buying this product for as long as I need it! It really works!
Customer Review: Worth Every Penny! Summary: 5 Stars
Like so many reviews I have read about this product, I too, have a story about extreme underarm sweating. I didn't have the money to see a doctor about it. I have read that so many people were too "embarrassed" to see their doctor about the issue, but as for me I could have cared less what he had to say or anyone else because I was so tired of wet underarms, black shirts, etc. And I used to work there! So I know everyone, and I'm sure the word would have gotten around.
I started looking for things to help me and this happened to run across my screen. Thought I would give it a try. Got it yesterday in the mail and put it on at night as the directions explained. The itching was minor and not enough to bother me. This morning I woke up and thought "Okay, now the test!" I always sweat in the morning. Maybe my hormones are in high gear or something, but I also sweat in the cold/heat - basically all the time. I carried around my two children this morning for about an hour in the hospital and doctors offices and NEVER A DROP! Can you believe it? After 1 day... there is nothing. Just wish I would have found it sooner and that others knew how great this stuff really is. No more dark colored shirts for me. I'm jumping out of this dark closet and headed into the sun in pink t-shirts! Who would have thought a roll-on would work? haha
This def deserves an award or something. People don't have to suffer any longer. It's also worth writing this long review just to expose myself with my terrible sweating problem, but it's a thing of the past. Great stuff, worth the $19.90 I paid for it.
Customer Review: THANK YOU JESUS!!!!! Summary: 4 Stars
I have a bad case of hyperhydrosis and sweat under my arms ALL of the time. It's so embarrassing because I usually try to wear black or dark shirts to hide the sweat stains. I've tried eveything from just using baby powder w/cornstartch,apple cider vinegar, and alcohol. NOTHING!!! I was seriously thinking about getting the surgery or the botox injections. No deodorants worked not even clinical strengths,it just made the sweating worse. I couldn't wear pretty gray,pink, red,turquiose,etc.shirts only boring black and if I did wear a different color,I would have to fix my arms to block the sweating so people wouldn't see me flooding. I would sweat when it was hot/cold. Anytime!! I tried this product and it's a miracle!!!!! The first night I applied it itched a little. The second night I needed to shave under my arms. I was scared because I read the reviews and people complained about burning. To my surprise I didn't feel anything. After the second night The sweating stopped a whole lot!!! By the third application it went to just being the size of a nickel compared to the size of a music cd. I stopped after the third nite to let my cousin borrow since she has the same problem, now.....She's ordering her some too!!!! So I highly recommend this for anyone who can't find any relief for their sweating!!! Wish I would've known about this many years ago. It's a little pricey but hell it works!!!! I will continue to use until otherwise. Thank you to the makers! P.s I didn't give it 5 stars because it doesn't have a scent.
