I understand that if your problem is really really bad, your GP can prescribe something. Either that, or he can recomend you for surgery. You can have the sweat gland area removed from your armpits (an area about the same size as a 2p piece).
The only problem is.....the sweat has got to come out somewhere!
Have you tried Mitchums? You can get it in a good chemist, and it has to be used regularly to build up it's effectiveness. It's very expensive, but very good.
Good luck

If you mention this to your GP as j9 wisely suggested he may prescribe some aluminium hydroxide based deodorant. This is VERY effective, but long term use I would not advise.
I don't know your age, but it may be something you 'grow' out of if you are mid/late teens. It may be hormonally related, and some times the 'pill' can help.
If you don't want to go to your GP, you could ask the advise of your local community pharmacist for practical help.
Hope you get sorted.

I had an addidas sport one once it was like an orangey coloured stick inside and I think the plastic outside was red but it smelt real nice and lasted me ages.
