Kidney Diseases, Weak Back, Backache or Lumbago, Incipient Bright’s Disease. If you suffer from a weak back, with pain, soreness, or stiffness; if there is a dragging weakness in the limbs and lack of muscular energy; or if your urine is very clear or high coloured, showing a sediment of white flakes through it, it indicates a weakness or disease of the kidneys. Veno’s Seaweed Tonic should be taken for at least two or three months, in teaspoonful doses twice or three times daily, after meals. The mixture contained a small proportion of undissolved sediment, which, when collected and examined, agreed in all respects with the insoluble portion of leptandrin. Glycerine, a little phosphate, alcohol, and a trace of chloroform were present, and vegetable extractive. Careful examination of the latter gave evidence of the presence of the constituents of cascara sagrada, senna, and rhubarb. Such a mixture as this could not, of course, be quantitatively resolved into its components, and the proportions given below were arrived at by comparisons of the properties of various trial mixtures with the properties of the original; no indication was obtained of any substance derived from seaweed. The following formula gives a practically identical mixture: Leptandrin 10 grains. Sodium phosphate, crystals 33 ” Liquid extract of cascara sagrada 45 minims. Concentrated infusion of rhubarb (1-7) 1 fluid dram. ” ” senna (1-7) 2½ fluid drams. Glycerine 2 ” Chloroform water 1 fluid ounce. Water to 3 fluid ounces. The estimated cost of the ingredients is 1½d. MUNYON’S KIDNEY CURE.
