Overview

Anhidrosis means lack of sweating.

Causes

It may be caused by underactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. Eccrine sweat glands are innervated by muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Therefore, antimuscarinic drugs can cause anhidrosis.

  • Autosomal dominant conditions
    • Dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis
    • Hay-Wells syndrome
    • Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1E
    • Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, autosomal dominant
    • Limb-mammary syndrome
    • Marshall syndrome
    • Naegeli-Franceschetti-Jadassohn syndrome
    • Rapp-Hodgkin ectodermal dysplasia syndrome
  • Autosomal recessive conditions
  • X-linked inherited conditions
    • Bazex-Dupre-Christol syndrome
    • Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with immune deficiency
    • Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, X-linked
  • Drug Causes
