From Alexander Tweedie, Esq., Surgeon to the Metropolitan Free
Hospital Carey.street, Lincoln's/nn.fields.
"MT DEAR SIR, have notes of six cases, in which I have admi-
nistered your —I
preparation of Copaiba. for the cure of Gonorrhoea, in
all of which the disease has been subdued in a shorter period of time
than according to the ordinary plans hitherto made use of. Besides
these cases of which I have taken notes, I have tried it in several in.
stances at the Greville street Hospital, and am quite satisfied that it
possesses a control over the urgent symptoms of Gonorrhrea, relieving
the discharge and mitigating the
scalding in making water that 1
nave not observed In the usual methods of exhibiting Copaiba. In
one instance only did it disagree with the stomach ; but in this it
seemed to depend rather on the method of exhibition than on the re-
medy
itself, for, on diluting it with a larger quantity of watet,the
objection was at once obviated, and the patient got well in ten days
from the time that he commenced taking the Medicine. I have not
had a case in which the discharge continued longer than ten days
after commencing this treatment.
" I am, dear Sir, your's very truly,
