sudorific (soo-duh-RIF-ik) - adj., causing or increasing sweat; producing sweat. n., a sudorific agent.


A synonym is diaphoretic. Borrowed in 1626 from Late Latin sūdōrificus, from sūdor, sweat + -ificus, nominalized suffix form of facere, to make.

(Have I mentioned that it June and that I live in a northern hemisphere desert?)
