Apirent Topical Solution 20%
Apirent Topical Solution 20% Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
Apirent Topical Solution 20% acts locally in the stratum corneum and terminal duct to relieve hyperhidrosis. Aluminium salts cause an obstruction of the ducts of sweat glands at the skin surface. It seems that the metal (Aluminium) ions precipitate with mucopolysaccharides, damaging epithelial cells along with the duct lumen and forms a plug (gel) that blocks sweat output.
