Streptococcal Disease as described by Rosenow and Billings must be accepted as a clinical entity, with an acute onset, subacute and chronic stages, and possible involvement of every tissue or organ in the body. It is in the same category of general infectious diseases as is tuberculosis, syphilis and malaria. The diagnosis made, the next great problem is therapy. Empirically Sodium Salicylate (Merrell) has been found invaluable in the acute stage and the acute exacerbations of the chronic form.

There is no doubt in the minds of those who have used a physiologic perparation like Secretogen that such a product opens up an altogether new line in the treatment of functional digestive insufficiences and stasis in the intestinal tract. Here one is using something that is indigenous to the soil in which it is going to be employed, and this in itself is a high recommendation. Secretogen not only excites the flow of the pancreatic secretion; it stimulates the flow of bile and intestinal juice as well. When one remembers how often biliary insufficiency is associated with constipation, the value of Secretogen will be apparent. It is also beneficial in the constipation that is due to atony, because it has been proved that Secretogen has a direct effect upon intestinal motility. In the metabolic variety of constipation where there is defective secretion and dry, hard, fecal matter to deal with, the value of Secretogen is apparent. In trophic constipation (that due to dietetic excesses, especially of meat) Secretogen is also of value because the putrefaction that an excess of food, especially that of animal origin, would produce, is inhibited to a large extent by the more abundant supply of enzyme material called forth by this form of medication. Secretogen is not a cathartic. All that it does is to increase secretion, gently stimulate peristalsis and bring about a restoration of normal conditions in the intestinal tract. The G. W. Carnrick Co., 26 Sullivan St., New York, will be glad to send all information on this product, and will also place a supply at the disposal of any physician for testing purposes.
