Relating to or causing a lack of sweating, or describing something that prevents or reduces sweat production.
From an- (without) + hydro (water) + -otic (relating to). The adjective form of anhydrosis, used in medicine to describe both conditions and substances that inhibit perspiration.
Some anticholinergic medications are anhydrotic side effects—your body literally cannot produce the sweat it needs, which is why people on certain medications are warned against intense exercise in heat.
