	ACS :: Antiperspirants
		It is possible that some antiperspirants may be slightly irritating to someone recovering from this infection or from underarm surgery.
		Antiperspirant, as the name clearly indicates, prevents the body from perspiring, thereby inhibiting it from purging toxins from below the armpits.
		The breast quadrants are not of equal size; the nipple is not in the true center of the breast and a significant amount of breast tissue, called the "axillary tail" extends toward the underarm.

	Deodorant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Deodorants may be combined with antiperspirants – classified as drugs by the FDA – which attempt to stop or significantly reduce perspiration.
		While at one time deodorants and antiperspirants were usually applied in an aerosol spray or in a liquid roll-on forms, many other options including compressed solid powders, compressed solid gels, gels, and alum crystals have taken over the market.
		Cultures and individuals differ in their attitudes about the need for deodorant, and on whether natural body odor is offensive.

	National Cancer Institute - Antiperspirants/Deodorants and Breast Cancer
		There is no conclusive research linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer (see Question 1).
		Some scientists have also proposed that certain ingredients in underarm antiperspirants or deodorants may be related to breast cancer because they are applied frequently to an area next to the breast (2).
		Because estrogen promotes the growth of breast cancer cells, some scientists have suggested that the use of deodorants or antiperspirants could cause the accumulation of parabens in breast tissues, which may contribute to the development of breast cancer.

	Howstuffworks "What is in an antiperspirant that stops sweat?"
		Solid antiperspirants are made with several ingredients, including wax, a liquid emollient and an active-ingredient compound.
		An average over-the-counter antiperspirant might have an active-ingredient concentration of anywhere from 10 to 25 percent.
		The FDA requires that over-the-counter antiperspirants contain no more than 15 to 25 percent of the active ingredient, depending on what it is. The FDA also requires that all antiperspirants must decrease the average person's sweat by at least 20 percent.

	Antiperspirant Use Does Not Appear to Increase Risk of Breast Cancer
		A deodorant is used specifically to eliminate odor and antiperspirant is used to stop underarm perspiration and odor.
		The participants completed a questionnaire examining overall deodorant or antiperspirant use, whether they shaved with a razor blade and whether they applied deodorant or antiperspirant within one hour of shaving with a razor blade.
		These researchers concluded that the routine use of deodorant or antiperspirants, even if used within one hour after shaving with a razor blade, does not appear to increase the risk of breast cancer.

	Antiperspirant Chemical Found in Breast Tumors
		Darbre says she is convinced antiperspirants can cause breast cancer but has received little support from the scientific community to test the hypothesis.
		If she gets funding, the researcher says she hopes to study whether aluminum, which is the active ingredient in most antiperspirants, is also present in breast tumor tissues and whether these chemicals are present in healthy breast tissue.
		Thun says people should not worry about using antiperspirants, but he says that the findings must be taken seriously by regulators who are responsible for assessing the safety of consumer products.

	Final Rule: Antiperspirant Drug Products for Over-the-Counter Human Use; ......
		FDA evaluated the data and the results demonstrate that a roll-on and a solid stick antiperspirant drug product are extra effective for 48 hours duration (i.e., sweat was reduced by at least 30 percent in the majority of subjects up to 48 hours after antiperspirant application).
		Information Requested In the antiperspirant FM, FDA stated that claims of enhanced duration for more than 24 hours are nonmonograph because FDA did not receive any data to demonstrate antiperspirant effectiveness for more than 24 hours (68 FR 34273 at 34278).
		Because FDA has now received data demonstrating antiperspirant product effectiveness for 48 hours, FDA is reopening the administrative record to provide for additional submission of data and comments on enhanced duration effectiveness claims for antiperspirant drug products.
