Abstract
Hyperhidrosis is a state of abnormal sweating in excess of that required for normal thermoregulation. It can considerably reduce one's quality of life, and may result in serious social and psychological problems, Hyperhidrosis may be either idiopathic or secondary, which is associated with systemic processes or trauma. Although treatments for secondary hyperhidrosis should be directed at the underlying causative process, if not possible, symptomatic treatments can be considered to improve the patients' quality of life, We experienced three cases of secondary hyperhidrosis following systemic disease (medullary infarction, post-menopausal syndrome) and trauma, which were treated with systemic or topical anticholinergics.
