Amazon.com Product Description
Did you know one in four Americans worry about excessive sweating? That's why there's Degree Clinical Protection. It's three times more effective than the level of wetness protection required by the FDA.

In fact, you get prescription strength wetness protection without the need for a prescription. Degree Clinical Protection is formulated with innovative TRIsolid body responsive technology, so you have peace-of-mind knowing it's working hardest when you need it most.

Degree Clinical Protection is formulated to provide clinical wetness protection without the irritation and discomfort caused by prescription anti-perspirants. Also available for men.

Degree Clinical Protection provides prescription strength protection without a prescription.

Who is Degree Clinical Protection For?
Anyone who does not want to be held back by perspiration or odor will benefit from Degree clinical protection levels.

How do I use it?
For maximum protection, apply to underarms before going to bed. While resting, the TRIsolid formula acclimates to the body, forming a deep level of protection. This protection lasts throughout the following day, even after a shower. Degree Clinical Protection can also be applied in the morning. The recommended dose for each underarm is 2 clicks.

Why apply Degree Clinical Protection at night?
Research shows that body temperature is not constant throughout the day and oscillates in a cycle known as the Circadian Rhythm. Under natural conditions, body temperature oscillates from a nighttime low of 97.7°F to a midday high of 98.9°F. Due to this cycle, skin is more receptive to Degree Clinical Protection while sleeping. This gives the formula time to work and build a strong level of protection for the day ahead.

How is the Degree TRIsolid formulation less irritating on skin than a prescription product?
The Degree TRIsolid formulation provides clinical wetness protection without the irritation and discomfort often caused by prescription anti-perspirants. Aluminum Chloride, an acidic ingredient, and alcohols, such as ethanol, are irritating components often found in prescription anti-perspirants. Degree Clinical Protection does not contain any of these ingredients. In fact, the TRIsolid formula contains dimethicone, an advanced skincare ingredient, which is commonly found in baby care products and skin lotions.

What do I do about excess sweating?
Past puberty, axillary (underarm) sweat and odor are normal body functions. Regular anti-perspirants can be effective in reducing normal levels of underarm sweating. However, some people may experience hyperhidrosis, a medical condition otherwise known as excessive sweating. Axillary hyperhidrosis can be a distressing problem and typically requires a stronger form of protection. To learn more about excessive sweating, go to www.antiperspirantsinfo.com or contact your local doctor or physician.

What is the difference between Deodorants and Anti-perspirants?
Normally, body temperature is in balance i.e. the heat generated by the body is the same as the heat leaving the body. However, when more heat is generated this balance shifts and the body becomes too hot. To re-establish the heat equilibrium, the body needs to increase heat output and this is achieved by sweating. Sweating can also occur in emotional situations when a person becomes nervous or embarrassed. Anti-perspirants reduce sweat by controlling the flow of underarm perspiration and masking body odor. Deodorants, on the other hand, prevent odor by using fragrance and by reducing the levels of underarm bacteria. However, deodorants alone do not stop sweating.

Are anti-perspirants safe?
Anti-perspirants have been used for more than sixty years and the overwhelming weight of evidence indicates that they are safe and effective. Unilever works with leading academic institutions around the world to advance its understanding of sweating and underarm protection to create highly effective and well tested formulations like Degree Clinical Protection.

Customer Reviews

nothing special here....
I was really not very impressed with this product. I normally use a solid with a light powder scent that is well priced and works well. I found there were several things that I didn't like about this product. The way the stick is designed where the product comes up through tiny holes in the top was kind of odd in my opinion. It seems it could have just been a solid, but perhaps I'm missing something (?), the scent, was WAAAAYYY too strong, and I am not someone who is usually affected by strong scents. My husband also commented that the scent was very strong. I'm used to a dry antiperspirant and this applied and felt wet and stayed that way for a while, which I didn't care for. Now as far as protection is concerned it was fine, but I definitely did not find it to be superior to my normal brand, nor would I feel it was worth the money to try this one out.

Really Impressed
I'm not someone that worries about which antiperspirant I use but was really impressed with this product. I also wasn't sure about the white mark potential as this is not a gel. This has been invisible. Scent is light and I've been dry even in really humid weather. Because this is
"stronger" than the usual deodorants, I thought I may break out because of my sensitive skin. Not the case! Very gentle and smooth.

Nothing special....and price is totally unwarranted.
I have always had a problem with perspiration and odor, and used Ban roll-on for years. It wasn't perfect, but pretty good. However, I wanted to try the convenience of a stick anti-perspirant/deodorant, so I tried various ones including Ban solid, Mitchum for women, degree, arrid, and Secret. Well, I tried Secret Clinical first, but wasn't happy...it just never dried and I felt sticky all the time. Scent was great though, so its deodorant qualities were good. With Degree Clinical...it was pretty much the same. It never seemed to dry, and when it did (after a LONG time), when I perspired it did NOTHING. The scent is like a strong plastic smell, which I didn't care for. The applicator top is a trip...with little holes that the product comes out of. You have to turn the wheel quite a few times to get much to come out. The item itself is packaged in a top heavy plastic container with a thin tube of the product actually in it. The price is a rip off. It's no better than the regular Degree.
