| Genttemen-I send you a few plain,
mattef-of-tact words in relation to the
value OF Clncho Quinine as | have found il
to be after thorough test. [ will here
state that at the dispeusary, out of over
5000 patients treated during the mast
year, | find quinine was administered as
whole and part treatment in over 3.Om
cases, clearly demonstrating the malarial
influences existing The test was given
the Cincho-Quinine in this wav. Taking
24O cases as they applied for treatment.
where quinlne was indicated, each alter
nate patient was given the Cincho- O uin-
Inc, with the following results:
Its febrlfuge, tonic, and antiperiodic eff
tects equalled those OF the sulphate. and
when administered with an intention of
producing inauguration and tonicity of the
| nervous system, as we'll as to increase mus
cnlar force, the Cincho Quinine may be
given for greater length of time, and even
IN larger dcses, than the sulphate.
Its power to strengthen the pulse was
not as well marked upon its early use, but
later appeared prominent. even in several
cases where CASTRO enterltic irritation ex
ls,ed, where the suiphate would have been
considered inadmissable unless combined
with morphia, etc.
The Cincho Quiniae produced no nm
pleasant results, as | could perceive. A
large number OF those to whom the sulph
ate Was administered (official doses) ex-
perlenced either headache, sickness. or
irregular action Of the bowels: while unon
the other hand not one case was SO affected
by the CinchoQuinine.
In many cases OF periodicitv the Cincho-
Quinlne was given IN very large doses, oft
repeated, and continued for Gays, without
producing the very unpleasant svuntoms
which would have undoubtedly occurred
II the sulphate had been used to such an
extent. The result was most gratifying.
not only to myself but also to the patients.
Where lSc. to ldr. doses were given, such
symptoms as pain in stomach. giddiness,
flushed counten4nce, apparent distention
III the he'd, paip:tation, blindness, deli
rum, numbness of feet. deafness, vomit-
ing, etc, did not appear, some Of which
would follow the use Of the sulphate in
such large doses
La typhoid and typhus fevers [ always
prescribe the Cincho Quinine in coLiunc
ton with other appropriate medicines, the
result being as favorable as with former
cases where the sulphate had been used. |
Not only ic cases of fever, but | have also
tried the Cincho Quinine in all case where
the sulphate is recommended. such as
rheumatism, neuralgia, debility, Gonzales |
cence from acute aud chronic diseases, |
dyspepsia, dysentery, etc, either alone or
combined with other medicines, as the
case may require. and with equally good
results Confined with morwhia pGys;
