Development of a Low-Cost Portable Iontophoresis Device.

Abstract

Hyperhidrosis, particularly of the palms and soles, is a common condition characterized by excessive and uncontrollable sweating that can significantly affect daily activities and quality of life. Among the many various treatments, the iontophoresis has emerged as a safe, simple, and non-pharmacological solution. Iontophoresis is used to treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) by temporarily disabling sweat glands through a small direct current through the skin via water-filled electrodes. Howe
