The iodides of potash and soda are used in solution or in pills (ten to twenty grains daily) chiefly in the so-called tertiary forms of syphilis. Local treatment. The Emplastrum mercuriale is one of the best local remedies ; indurated sores and papules disappear more rapidly under this, than general treatment. It is especiall}^ useful in corona syphilitica for removing the eruption on the face, also in syphilis on the buttocks of children. Broad condylomata are fre- quently cured by merely placing charpie between the opposed cutaneous surfaces, the cure is effected more rapidly by caustics : a. Sol. Plenhii (mod.) R.

Voigt, Schneider, and Van der Broek, showed that Zittmanns decoction contained corrosive sublimate. It was formerly be- lieved that this remedy was not suitable in the case of old standing syphilis in ill-nourished cachectic subjects, but our experience in hospital and private practice, does not confirm this view. The effect of the remedy is not apparent during the first week, even](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b21445904_0293.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
