Driclor

Driclor is a strong anti-perspirant manufactured by Stiefel Laboratories (UK) and produced in Sligo, Ireland.^[1] Driclor is similar to other strong anti-perspirants using 20% aluminium chloride hexahydrate as the active ingredient, however, the water content and roll-on dispenser may cause skin irritancy as water / perspiration can break down the active ingredient to produce hydrochloric acid.^[2]

Driclor is sold only as a roll-on application bottle. It has a pharmalogical classification of 'anti-perspirant'. The packaging and bottle are in white with strips and wording in blue colour.
