ADVERTISEMENTS Cleanse the Blood and keep it circulating Therein lies the essence of the successful treatment of pneumonia. The phagocytes are the scavengers of the blood but unless the affected part receives the full amount of the normal flow with its opsonins, resisting power is lost. In pneumonia, it is necessary to either increase the opsonic index of the blood, so that the small amount reaching the congested lungs may be of normal opsonic value or dilate the vessels and let the blood freely circulate, carrying the phagocytes into the lungs. Heat is the best dilator of the blood vessels, and an antiseptic poultice is the best agent for conveying moist heat. Antiphlogistine Antidote) offers an ideal method for the application of moist heat. By the dilation of the vessels, pulmonic engorgement is overcome, free circulation is established, and blood, laden with phagocytes, sweeps through the affected area, and overcomes the toxic bacteria. In Pneumonia, Bronchitis, Pleurisy and Croup, Antiphlogistine should be applied hot and thick over the affected part, and covered with absorbent cotton. The Denver Chemical Mfg. Co. :: New York.
