The first line treatment for primary palmar hyperhidrosis is usually topical aluminium chloride, but clinical experience indicates that it is not effective for more severe disease.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Objective\u2002<\/jats:bold> To evaluate the efficacy of using glycopyrronium bromide iontophoresis in the treatment of primary palmar hyperhidrosis, and to evaluate if the benefit of treatment varies with the severity of disease.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods\u2002<\/jats:bold> This is an open\u2010label study involving patients undergoing weekly treatment of iontophoresis with glycopyrronium bromide for 4\u2003weeks. Gravimetric measurements of sweat production and subjective scores of palmar sweatiness were recorded prior to starting treatment and 1\u2003week after the last treatment. Side\u2010effects were monitored weekly.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results\u2002<\/jats:bold> Twenty two of the 25 patients recruited completed the 4\u2010week treatment. There was a significant mean improvement of 23.4\u2003mg\/min (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u20030.001) between baseline and post\u2010treatment gravimetric measurements. Patients with a higher baseline sweat output demonstrated a trend towards a greater reduction in sweat production (Pearson\u2019s correlation correlation coefficient, <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u20030.41). The patients experienced dryness of the palms for a mean duration of 5\u2003days after iontophoresis. All patients reported an improvement in satisfaction scores and 81.8% reported an improvement in subjective severity scores. No serious side\u2010effects were encountered during the study.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions\u2002<\/jats:bold> Iontophoresis using glycopyrronium bromide is an effective and well\u2010tolerated treatment for primary palmar hyperhidrosis. The possibility of its greater benefit in patients with more severe baseline disease requires verification.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-3083.2011.04197.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,3]],"date-time":"2011-08-03T13:04:38Z","timestamp":1312376678000},"page":"1167-1170","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Efficacy of iontophoresis with glycopyrronium bromide for treatment of primary palmar hyperhidrosis"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"H.Y.","family":"Chia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.S.L.","family":"Tan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"W.S.","family":"Chong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H.L.","family":"Tey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-197707000-00006"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1468-1331.2001.00207.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_2","unstructured":"NaumannMK HammH SpaldingJR KowalskiJW LeeJT.Comparing the quality of life effect of primary focal hyperhidrosis as assessed by the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI).
