Iontophoresis (the application of low-level electric current to the surface of the skin) results in reduced production of sweat at that site. A battery-operated device conforming to the shape of the treated area, using tap water–wetted pads in contact with the skin of the palms, soles, or axillae, is available for patient self-use. Four to 15 treatments 20 minutes long inhibit sweat for up to 6 weeks; 95% of patients showed improvement in 2 weeks, and 86% remained improved at 6 weeks. Minor retreatment every 6 weeks is needed to sustain inhibition. Biopsies reveal hyperkeratotic plugs within sweat ducts following treatment.∙Three devices (Drionic Hands, Drionic Axillae, Drionic Feet) are available at $125.00 per pair. They may be ordered by the patient from General Medical Co, Dept DM-8, 1935 Armacost Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90025. (www.drionic.com)More complicated devices are available from other manufacturers.
