Zusammenfassung

Eine konsequente Unterscheidung zwischen Deo und Antiperspirant findet im europäischen Raum kaum statt. Insbesondere in Deutschland stellt das Wort „Deo“ einen Überbegriff dar. Dabei beeinflussen ausschließlich Antiperspirantien die Aktivität der ekkrinen Schweißdrüsen. Bei der Behandlung der fokalen Hyperhidrose stehen aluminiumchloridhaltige Antiperspirantien nach wie vor an erster Stelle. Die Wirksamkeit ist in einer Vielzahl von Studien belegt. Als subjektive Nebenwirkungen können Juckreiz und – seltener – eine irritative Dermatitis auftreten, die symptomatisch behandelt werden kann und meist keinen Behandlungsabbruch erzwingt. Auch Sonderformen der fokalen Hyperhidrose wie aurikolotemporales Syndrom, Ross-Syndrom und Naevus sudoriferus sind einer Behandlung mit Aluminiumchloridlösungen zugänglich.

Abstract

In Europe often no clear distinction is made between deodorant and antiperspirant. Particularly in Germany, the labeling “deo” is used for both. Only antiperspirants are capable of influencing the activity of eccrine sweat glands. In the treatment of focal hyperhidrosis, the use of aluminum chloride solutions represents the first choice. The efficacy is well documented in a variety of studies. Subjective side effects include pruritus and – less often – irritant dermatitis, which can be treated symptomatically and usually does not require discontinuation of the treatment. Rare variants of focal hyperhidrosis like auriculotemporal syndrome, Ross syndrome and nevus sudoriferus also are suitable for treatment with topical aluminum chloride hexahydrate solutions.
