As we know that the foul smell is caused due to the bacterial growth, you may be prescribed some topical antibiotics. Antiseptic soaps and creams are also used which hinder the growth of bacteria and give relief from the bad odor. Antiperspirant products which contain aluminum chloride may enhance drying, which in turn reduces the intensity of bromhidrosis.
Iontophoresis
This method is used to reduce the sweat production. This is performed by giving small electric current to the particular area which produces excess sweat while it is placed under tap water. This treatment is used only for the volar skin (skin of the palm or foot) and only if the reason behind bromhidrosis is excess production of sweat. This treatment remains effective for a long period of time.
