Intestinal Invitations of Infant Child :

Therapeutic Uses of Exalgine in all Kinds of Pain: Including Cephalalgia, Rheumatism, Neural

gia, Sciatica, Otitis, and the Pains

of Influenza, Etc.

The literature relating to the use of this important medicament is very extensive, and with few exceptions, the use of the remedy has been followed with satisfactory results. DR. ROBERTS BARTHOLOW speaks of its value as a hypnotic when given hypodermically. (5th ed. Manual of Hypodermatic Medication.)

DRS. GORODICZE AND SALAMANCA have seen exalgine subdue the cephalalgia of influenza after morphine and other drugs had failed.

DR. DÉSIRÉ, of the Lariboisière, has used exalgine for pains, even syphilitic, or due to laryngeal epithelioma. His cases can be numbered by hundreds; he gives details of 32 miscellaneous cases in which 30 give good results.

DR. MONCORVO, whose specialty is children's diseases, has used exalgine in all sorts of cases, from an otitis to a burn, with very favorable results.

DR. TH. FRASER successfully treated pain in a series of 88 cases 67 times. His patients, however, were of the most painful type, such as are never cured, or even ameliorated by drugs. All his cases of facial neuralgia were cured definitely.

DR. H. LOEWENTHAL, of Berlin, and DR. CHARLES L. DANA, of New York, report the successful use of exalgine in chorea; DR. MONCORVO has also found the medicament of great value in this complaint. He has published a detailed case in which exalgine seemed to act the part of a specific in this troublesome affection.

Among those who have recommended the use of exalgine, may be mentioned the names of DUJardin-Beaumetz, BARDET, DESNOS, YOUNGER, FERREIRA, RUSSO, SAVILL, etc.

Exalgine should be given in SMALL DOSES; these may be increased in frequency, but not in size. After a few doses, if the drug appears to have no favorable effect, it should be discontinued.

A febrile condition is thought to be a formal contraindication, but in the cephalalgia of influenza exalgine has succeeded where all other drugs have failed.

A peculiarity of this remedy is that it frequently cures permanently diseases for which it was given for the pain alone.

Exalgine is not disagreeable to the taste and needs no adjuvant. Eight grains of the crystals dissolve at once in an ounce of hot water and remain in solution after the water is cold; of such a solution one or two teaspoonfuls (representing on or two grains of exalgine) is the dose. Such doses may be repeated four or five times in the 24 hours.
