FDA approves Dermira's wipe for excessive armpit sweating

Dermira Inc said on Friday its topical cloth for excessive armpit sweating was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, providing patients with an easy-to-use option for an often embarrassing condition.

[...] The treatment, Qbrexza, works by blocking receptors responsible for sweat gland activation and can be used once a day, the company said in a statement.

[...] Currently, Allergan's Botox injection is used to treat the condition. Other treatments include antiperspirants and costlier alternatives such as laser therapy, as well as localized surgery like liposuction to remove sweat glands.

Also at the Chicago Sun-Times.

    Steve Jobs also believed that.

    Apparently he reeked.

    The problem isn't that he stopped showering/using soap, it's that he didn't spray the magic bacteria over himself.

    Oh, and the fact that he killed himself with an alternative cancer treatment.

      I kinda find it fitting.

      He was a piece of shit on the inside, and also smelled like shit on the outside.
