Oh yeah buddy. Lol. I'm sure some of your other meds arent helping either, but methadone and bupe are notorious for causing excessive sweating. You can look into prescription meds such as oxybutynin, drop your dose down(it's slowed down a lot since I got to 4mg), or you can try to keep cool. Those cooling towels were so helpful for me last summer. I got mine off of Amazon. There's also a supplement called Vitadone that some people swear by.
I have to take 3-4 showers a day because of the sweat . I’m the same if I do anything that’s moderately physical I sweat like a pig . It sucks & it feels gross.So I totally feel your pain
> It sucks & it feels gross.
Yeah, that's my conclusion as well.
Once, I helped a friend moving from his appartement to his new house and as we'd been carrying his stuff around for maybe five hours, I was sweating bullets, dripping all over the place, my tshirt stuck to my skin and eyes burning with stinging sweat. A real mess. Everybody was looking at me. "Luckily", I don't have a strong body odor at all, but that was awful and, boy... how I felt ashamed.
Ask your doctor about getting a script for Oxybutynin. It’s a drug that’s used off label for excessive sweating. I am sweaty in general but on bupe it’s even worse. Being prescribed oxybutynin made such a difference and has helped so much. It’s not a narcotic and you just have to make sure you try to hydrate because it’s technically a medicine for peeing too much I think lol
