BOREMETINE—A NEW EMETINE PREPARATION FOR PYORRHEA

Every doctor and dentist in the United States should know about this new preparation for the local treatment of pyorrhea alveolaris. Boremetine is a 1-2 per cent solution of emetine hydrochloride, together with boric acid, zinc sulphocarbolate, and aromatics.

The emetine is amebicidal, the boric acid bactericidal, and the zinc sulphocarbolate astringent. These three drugs meet the three essential factors necessary for the successful treatment of pyorrhea. Boremetine should be used in every case, either alone, or (in some severe cases) in association with the subcutaneous injection of Emetine Hydrochloride (Abbott).

A special free booklet on “Pyorrhea Alveolaris: How to treat it successfully with Emetine” will be sent on request. Send for it today. The Abbott Alkaloidal Company, Chicago.
