I'm right there with you. Many of these AD meds can cause excessive sweating.
I have gotten that same side effect from nearly every AD med I have ever taken.
For me it got a bit better over time, until I switched to a tri-cyclic which is even worse for sweating.
Nothing is worse than waking up in the middle of the night with a soaked pillow.
If I keep a fan on my face at night I find this helps evaporate much of the sweat and really helps.
This sweating is the only side effect I find hard to deal with.
I hope this info. is of value...

The sweating can get better after about 3 months. It will take time for your body to adjust. I would give it some time and see what happens.
I think part of my problem is that I have always been a hot blooded person. I enjoy the cool weather and have little tolerence for the heat.
