I have been taking 60mg since Nov last year, I’ve had various symptoms but the benefits of the drug outway those. I have noticed in the last 6wks i have been sweating a great deal, prior to prozac I was always so cold, i could be down the gym working out for a hour and still not come out in a sweat but now I only just have to sit down and i sweat everywhere.

i would be interested to know if you are able to take a drug to stop the sweating?

i take this stuff called Drysol, it works wonders for my armpits… but i sweat everywhere! my entire face, neck, back, chest, arms, legs, feet… EVERYTHING! iv been reading some stuff about the sweating and i i think i got a bad case of HyperHidrosis… but the only thing they talk about is just the hands and feet! I NEED FULL BODY TREATMENT! its soo frigging embarrassing! i hardly have a good social life because of it!

i hate researching for stuff, it bores me to death so if anyone can just give me some advice and maybe some drugs or special treatments i should ask my doctor about id really appreciate it.

thanks!
