Incomplete Drug Labelling Is Hit

\ hoRE informative labeling On some types
Of patent and proprietary medicines Is
vital for the protection Of the public according
to DR.. =. J. Cullen. chief of the drug control
OF the Federal Food and Drug Administration.
He points out that at least one powerful ano-
dyne and sedative which he contends should
never be taken without supervision of q ply
sician may be included in certain products
without the presence of the anodyne being
noted on the label
He reported that one famous clinic had
found five deaths due to the preparation which
contained the anodyne and other deaths were
also attributed to its presence. One patient
at the clinic thought he was suffering from
juandice, but it was discovered that he was
in reality victim Of atrophy of the liver
caused by the anodyne.
As late as October, 1882, the Annals of IN
ternal Medicine reported six fatal cases Of Gin
chophen poisoning, four Of which were caused
by one proprietary remedy. The patients suf-
fered from progressive painless jaundice, asso-
ciated with other distress, and with pyrosis and

any derivative or preparation of any such sub

DIR. Cullen, affords the public some protection
But there is a real need for additional safe
guards which could be Achieved by amending
the law so as to insist that additional habit
