Excerpt from The Monthly Abstract of Medical Science, Vol. 5: A Digest of the Progress of Medicine and the Collateral Sciences An objection is now and again raised to the salicylate treatment 011 the ground that relapses are especially liable to occur, but so far as we are able to form an Opinion, this objection applies equally, or very nearly equally, to other methods of treatment, and a reference to thirty-two cases lately under observation shows that a relapse took place in ten cases out of eighteen in which the salicylates were used; that recurrence of the symptoms sat in in four out of eight cases under alka lies, and in two out of six cases in which the treatment consisted of a combination of the alkaline and salicylate treatments. One case under alkalies suffered as many as four relapses, while in no case under the other treatments did the pain recur more than twice.
