Diabetic gustatory hyperhidrosis is a late sequela of diabetes and can have profound consequences. We report a case of diabetic gustatory hyperhidrosis controlled with topical aluminum chloride hexahydrate and support this as a first-line treatment. Aluminum chloride hexahydrate is a safe, effective, inexpensive and commercially available treatment.
