NEW CURE FOR

DYSENTERY.

THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 22ND, 1914

Emetine as a cure for dysentery has quially become known to the medical profession, but the following article contributed to the Peking Gazette con- tains much chat is of interest to the general public on the subject and for that reason we reproduce it

One of the most striking and important discoveries in modern medicino was that made about two years ago by Dr. Leonard Hogara," of the Indian Medical Sorvico, when he first used hypodermic injections of Emetine Salts in the treatment of Amoebic Dysentery, by which the lives of thousands have been saved and the medical profession obtained a drug of almost certain precision in the cure of this disease which was formerly 30 intractable.

Two forms of Dysentery are now knowa to the profession, viz., Bacillary Dysen- Stery and Amoebic Dysentery the formor usually accompanied by fever and Facute in character: the latter a touch more chronic complaint and without much attendant fever.

It is in the latter form that Emetins Hydrochloride has proved such a boon.

One of the remedies that frequently gave excellent results in the treatment. of Dysentery was Ipecacuanhạc root powder, but it had to be given in

large doses, and as it contained as one of its active principles a salt of Emeting, it often caused such sickness and vomiting 18 to make its administration very difficult. An attempt was made to prevent the sickness by eliminating the Emetine from the Ipeca, and a powder of Ipeca sine Emottoe was put on the market; this occasionally gave good results though several physicians doubted the efficacy of the drug without the Emetine.

This led Dr. Leonard Rogers to make his experiments of testing the effect of Emetine Hydrochloride on living

it destroyed these organisms very rapidly. His next experiment was to introduce this substance into the body without inducing vomiting. This he did by injecting a solution containing one- third of a grain of Emetine under the skin of a patient suffering from Dysen- tery, and the results were so striking that he was able to report a large number of successful cases, where people suffering from this malady and having as many as 20 or 30 motions of the bowels daily, after treatment by this method, were well in few days, and even in caso8 of relapse were again quickly relieved by a few more injections of the Emetine

Saite.

When it is remembered that to be effective 60 grains of Ipeca have to be given by the mouth for several days and then at the risk of much vomiting and discomfort, whereas one-third of a grain of Emetine is equal to 60 grains of Ipaca, and this amount can be given

three times a day without any discom- fort, it will be seen how effective and satisfactory the new method is.

China have now used Emetine for this trouble with great success, so that it is even now regarded as a test in doubtful cases to prove whether the patient is suffering from the Amoebic or sonie other form of Dysentery.

Dr. Leonard Rogers-bolds that after using the Emetine for two or three days without allaying the symptoms the physi- eian is safe in concluding that he is not dealing with Amoebic but Bacillary Dysentery and that other remedies must be triod,

In North and South China Amoebic Dysentery is a disease constantly met. with, the infection being probably got from contaminated water or food, and

The lay public, however, should under- stand that it is not a remedy to be applied indiscriminately in all cases, and should be reserved for the doctor to carry out after an examination of the Amoeba.

Still it is a comfort to know that this particular form of disease which in the and past has slain its thousands invalided home from foreign parts thou- sands more, broken in health, has at last been conquered. The name of Leonard Rogers must be placed on the roll of honour of those painstaking workers who, aided by the help of the chemist in the laboratory, and the skilled artisans who have formed the modern microscope, have conferred a lasting boon upon their fellowmen.

Since his great success in combating Amoebic Dysentery he has given his time to research for a remedy for the other forms, and though nothing so striking as his first remedy has yet been reported, still the man who in his hospital in Calcutta has succeeded by improved methods in reducing the mortality in cholera from 70 to 30 per cent. is not likely to leave unsolved the other part treatment of of the problem the Bacillary Dysentery:
