Hi. For what it's worth, I found an antiperspirant in my local drugstore that actually helped with the excessive sweating you're talking about. (I had that side-effect too when I was taking it.) The antiperspirant is called "Certain Dri" by NUMARK laboratories, Inc. It's active ingredient is Aluminum Chloride (which may be a controversial substance itself, I don't know.) But it did seem to help -- not 100% but way better than without. It's different than any other antiperspirant on the shelf. You actually apply it at bedtime. Otherwise, I just carried a spare shirt to change into at lunch time.
Hope you come up with something that helps.
