Hyperhidrosis (over sweating) could have serious underlying causes that may require surgery or antibiotics in severe cases. Only your health care provider can diagnose these types of issues.
If your doctor should deem your sweating is abnormal, ask him/her about Drysol. Drysol is aluminum chloride hexahydrate and when applied to the underarms works to block the sweat glands and plug the pores. It is a prescription medication and should only be used with a doctor's guidance.
Your doctor may suggest an in office surgical or laser treatment.
Check your local drug store or grocery store for an antiperspirant/deodorant. Try wearing a plain, white, 100% cotton t-shirt underneath your normal shirts. Try anti-bacterial soaps to kill additional bacteria while you shower.
It would be advisable to consult a skin specialist for the symptoms and a proper clinical examination.
