1. WHAT ANTIDRAL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR

Antidral contains aluminium chloride, which reduces the activity of sweat glands by denaturing
proteins within the glands and binding to fibrin fibres forming the endings of exocrine glands.
After application, internal pressure within the sweat duct increases (a feedback mechanism),
resulting in inhibition of sweat secretion from the sweat glands. Other components of the medicine
facilitate absorption of the active substance and significantly reduce the risk of superficial skin infections.
Antidral is applied topically to skin areas affected by excessive sweating, such as feet, armpits, and hands.
Antidral eliminates or alleviates unpleasant symptoms associated with excessive sweating.
