Scientific Literature
Finding peer-reviewed articles published in respected medical journals and the results from other scientific studies related to hyperhidrosis can be frustrating and time consuming. That's why we've compiled a library of clinical data here. The articles, posters, and study data provided represents the best medical and scientific information to-date regarding the physiology, treatment, and effects of hyperhidrosis. New data and results will be posted as they become available. If you know of clinical information that should be included here, please let us know.
