Certain Dri Prescription Strength Clinical Antiperspirant contains 15% Aluminum Chloride.
Other antiperspirants may have aluminum complexes at higher percentages, but they are not the same. Aluminum Chloride is the strongest and most effective ingredient available and is the same active ingredient found in many prescription formulas.
Antiperspirants work best while you sleep to stop sweat the next day. You sweat less at night, allowing the antiperspirant to absorb into your pores for sweat protection the next day.
Usage instructions:
Apply at night to completely dry, non-irritated underarms.
Can be reapplied in the morning for an extra layer of freshness and protection
Please note: this antiperspirant contains a strong active ingredient designed to stop excessive sweating and may irritate the skin when applied incorrectly. It is important to apply sparingly at nighttime only to completely dry underarms. Do not use immediately after showering or shaving or on broken or irritated skin.
You may not have to use Clinical Strength Certain Dri® every day. You may wish to begin your treatment by using Certain Dri® every day until excessive perspiration is controlled. Thereafter, apply Certain Dri® every other day or as needed.
To increase the effectiveness of the product, I make sure my underarms are completely dry before applying. I find that this helps the formula really hit all my sweat glands and limit the chances of irritation. It took about three consecutive nights of applying Certain Dri for me to recognize a difference.
“Clinical Strength” is a marketing term to highlight antiperspirants with a higher concentration of active ingredient. This helps consumers easily identify these products without searching the label.
If you tend to sweat a lot, you may wish to apply deodorant or antiperspirant more often. Since deodorant doesn't absorb into your body, there is no limit to how often you can use it to mask odor or to provide a pleasant scent.
At night, when people perspire less, more of the antiperspirant's aluminum-based active ingredient is pulled into the sweat ducts. Because there's more antiperspirant present, it more effectively plugs pores. That signals the sweat glands to reduce or stop perspiration. The effect lasts even after morning bathing.
Two strokes up and two strokes down with your product should be sufficient. And, depending on how much you sweat, if you're applying your antiperspirant at night you might not need to apply it every day.
Essentially you want to give it the time to "soak in" so to speak and do its magic over night. Then by morning it won't matter if you wash your armpits in the shower.
“Some people have allergic reactions to deodorants or antiperspirants. Research indicates that this could be caused by ingredients such as propylene glycol (a chemical that gives a deodorant stick its shape), essential oils (frequently used in fragrance), biological additives, parabens, vitamin E, and lanolin” said Dr.
