This successful and highly popular remedy, as.........-- employed in the Continental Hospitals by Ricord, Rostan, Jobert, Velpeau, and others, combines all tho desiderata to be sought is a medicine of the. kind and surpasses everything hitherte employed..
THERAPION No. 1-
in a remarkably short time, often a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs; superseding injections, the use of which does irre- parable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious diseases,··O.
THERAPION No.2
for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blotches, pains and swelling of the joints, secon- dary symptoms, gout, rheumatism, and all diseases for which it has been too much a fashion to em- ploy mercury, sarsaparilla, &c., to the destruction of sufferers' teeth and ruin of health. This pre-- paration purifies the whole system through the blood, and thoroughly eliminates every poisonous matter from the body.
THERAPION NO.3
fornerrous exhaustion, impaired vitality, sleepless- ness, and all the distressing consequences of early error, excess, residence in hot, unhealthy climates, &c. It possesses surprising power in restoring strength and vigour to the debilitated.
