What is the difference between deodorant and antiperspirant
High levels of sweat require additional care
For many people, high levels of sweat and odour can have a real impact on daily life. Sweating can become so overwhelming that it affects socializing, meeting new people, finding a partner, joining team sports, or showing full potential at work.
Although sweating is a natural process, persistent or increased levels of sweating may require additional care. Many people use a deodorant to try to manage their sweating problem. However, deodorants are primarily designed to reduce or mask odour. They do not reduce the amount of sweat, which makes them insufficient for people who experience higher levels of sweating.
What is the first-line of treatment when you experience excessive sweating?
The doctor-recommended first-line of treatment for people with excessive sweating is the use of extra-effective antiperspirants, containing the active ingredient Aluminum Chloride. This ingredient is clinically proven to reduce perspiration and control odour. It works by forming a temporary gel plug within the sweat ducts. This prevents sweat from reaching the skin’s surface, helping to keep underarms dry and removing the bacteria’s food source that causes odour. The gel plug is naturally dispelled as the skin naturally sheds old cells.
How to reduce intense sweating?
Sweating in the armpits cannot be completely stopped, but it can be effectively reduced with the right antiperspirant solution. For people with intense sweating, regular deodorants are not sufficient, as they mainly act on odour and only provide short-lasting freshness rather than meaningful sweat reduction.
Perspirex Comfort is specifically developed for people who feel that their sweating is intense and sometimes problematic in daily life. It is the antiperspirant with the lowest Aluminium Chloride content in the Perspirex range, making it particularly suitable for first-time Perspirex users or for those who only occasionally perceive their sweating as a problem. Perspirex Comfort helps reduce both sweat and odour while maintaining skin comfort. Its skin care system contains the soothing agent Biosaccharide Gum1, which helps reduce skin sensitivity and helps limit the risk of potential skin irritation, which can sometimes occur when using extra-effective antiperspirants.
How to reduce heavy sweating?
When sweating is heavy and regularly affects daily activities, managing it requires more than basic sweat or odour control. Although sweating in the armpits cannot be completely stopped, it can be effectively reduced by using an antiperspirant specifically formulated for higher sweat levels.
Perspirex Original and Perspirex Men Regular are developed for people who feel that their sweating is heavy and often problematic in daily life. They provide a stronger and more durable reduction of sweat and odour compared to milder alternatives. Both products include an active skin care system based on Calcium Lactate, which helps balance the low pH of the formulation. But it also minimizes the risk of potential skin irritation, commonly seen when using extra-effective antiperspirants, while still supporting effective sweat reduction.
How to reduce extreme sweating?
When sweating is extreme and problematic every single day, managing it requires a targeted and strong solution. Sweating in the armpits cannot be completely stopped, but it can be reduced with an extra-effective antiperspirant developed specifically for very high sweat levels. For people who experience extreme sweating, standard deodorants and mild antiperspirants are insufficient.
Perspirex Strong and Perspirex Men Maximum are designed for individuals with extreme sweating who need prescription strength efficacy. With the highest Aluminum Chloride content in the Perspirex range, these products provide powerful, long‑lasting reduction of sweat and odour. Perspirex Strong and Perspirex Men Maximum are suitable for those who experience extreme perspiration on a daily basis and require an intensive solution to help regain control.

Prescription-strength deodorant or antiperspirants for heavy sweating?
As deodorants only mask odour there is no prescription deodorant for heavy sweating. But there are prescription-strength antiperspirants developed for people who experience extreme sweating also known as clinical strength antiperspirants. The primary purpose of prescription-strength antiperspirants is to significantly reduce the amount of sweat reaching the skin’s surface. This becomes especially important when sweating can no longer be managed with conventional deodorants. They contain a higher concentration of aluminium salts and typically use the more potent aluminium variant, Aluminum Chloride, whereas everyday antiperspirants more commonly contain Aluminium Chlorohydrate. This difference in composition and percentage contributes to their higher effectiveness in managing extreme sweating that is problematic every single day.
Prescription-strength antiperspirants such as Perspirex Strong and Perspirex Men Maximum are developed specifically for this level of sweating, where consistent and long‑lasting sweat reduction is needed and milder solutions are no longer sufficient.
Choose the right solution based on sweat perception
Because sweating varies greatly from person to person, choosing the right level of protection is essential. The Perspirex Sweating Severity Indicator© has been developed to help translate personal sweat perception into a clear and understandable guide – especially for those living with the challenges, limitations, and stigma that high levels of sweat and body odour can bring.
Perspirex antiperspirants offer different levels of sweat protection, helping you to find the solution that best matches your individual needs and perceived level of sweating. The Sweating Severity Indicator© helps guide this selection and reinforces that Perspirex is not an ordinary antiperspirant, but a solution providing protection for intense, heavy, or extreme sweating.
Perspirex Strong is an extra-effective antiperspirant for extreme sweating. It has a clinically proven protection effect against sweat and odour for up to 5 days.
