A 63-year-old man has had problems for several weeks with increased sweating. This is worse from his scalp and armpits. He describes sweat dripping down his face and drenching of areas of his shirt after going for a short walk. Four months earlier, he had an acute coronary event followed by the development of depression. Since that time, he has been taking bisoprolol, clopidogrel, fluoxetine, ramipril and simvastatin. His blood tests are normal.
