Clinical strength antiperspirant vs regular antiperspirant
How is clinical strength antiperspirant different from regular antiperspirant?
Both regular antiperspirants and clinical strength antiperspirants reduce sweating by temporarily blocking sweat glands. While many regular antiperspirants offer 24 or 48 hour protection, Dove Clinical + Care Invisible Solid Antiperspirant, actually provides 3X the sweat protection required of an ordinary antiperspirant. Delivering 96-hour protection, this range is specially formulated to tackle hormonal, heat, and stress-induced sweating. If you’re struggling to keep on top of sweat with a regular antiperspirant, it might be time to level up.

Knowing whether you actually need a clinical strength antiperspirant comes down to how much sweating affects your daily life – not just how often you sweat. You might benefit from a specialized antiperspirant for heavy sweating if your regular antiperspirant wears off after a few hours or if you get visible sweat patches on your clothes, even when you’re not very active. If sweat is having an impact on your work or social life, an over the counter antiperspirant for excessive sweating, such as Dove Clinical + Care, can help.
