Mode of Action
The exact mechanism of action of antiperspirants is unknown. The most widely held position is that the metal salts contained in antiperspirants physically obstruct the ductal opening of the sweat gland.
Several studies have shown that aluminum salts cause an obstruction of the distal sweat gland ducts. A mechanism underlying this obstruction has been proposed: the metal ions precipitate with mucopolysaccharides, damaging epithelial cells along the lumen of the duct and forming a plug that blocks sweat output.
