What Is Causing Extreme Sweating?

I suffer from extreme perspiration/sweating. Tried to blame it on the medications I take, talked to the pharmacist, but no answers yet. Droplets dripping off of my scalp as if I was in a shower. Wet hair dripping on to my shoulders and then my whole body is wet. Please, please help me.

Sometimes it normal to sweat more. Fat people sweat more. Stress is another cause. Very rarely medicine causes excess sweating. Try to reduce stress and weight.
