Question
I sweat a lot and I'm going into grade 8. I asked my Mom if we could go to the doctor and ask for a prescription for Drysol. She thinks that he wont give me the prescription because she thinks I'm too young and that my sweating is normal. But I sweat SOOO much! It's crazy. So, will the Doctor prescribe Drysol to me even though I'm only 13?
Answer
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Drysol may be prescribed to someone your age. I would see your doctor about this.
