ALPHOZONE OMITTED FROM N. N. R.

Report of the Council on Pharmacy and Chemistry

The following advertisement appeared in the New Idea (September, 1916), a house organ of Frederick Stearns & Co., the proprietors of Alphozone:

Therefore, the Council directed that Alphozone be omitted from New and Non­official Remedies.—(From Reports of Council on Pharmacy and Chemistry, 1916, p. 50.)
