Iontophoresis against hyperhidrosis or
for better transdermal drug transport
Many years of scientifi c studies have shown that tap water iontophoresis can
be a highly effective alternative to medication or surgery. The treatment with
IontoBravo is done using simple hand and foot baths. The weak current which
is passed through the water, is suffi cient to reduce the excretion of the sweat
glands, without damaging them. Current is applied by wet sponge bags to treat
the armpit area.
Optimal results are achieved with direct current, but sensitive
patients or children can rely on pulsed current, which is effective as well. If
initial treatment is applied once a day for approximately 15 minutes, sweat secretion
should normalize within 2 – 3 weeks. Maintenance sessions should be
performed one to two times per week to prevent re-occurrence.
Iontophoresis is also useful to enhance drug delivery through the skin into
deeper tissue.
