Sofpironium Will Be a New Rx for Underarm Sweating

You’ll hear buzz about sofpironium (Sofdra), a new Rx topical gel for excessive underarm sweating...or primary axillary hyperhidrosis.

Think of sofpironium as similar to topical glycopyrronium (Qbrexza). Both are once-daily meds to manage sweating in patients age 9 and up.

A big difference is that glycopyrronium comes as medicated cloths...sofpironium gel comes in a 50 mL metered-dose pump with an applicator.
