Ordinarily, iron medication presents two difficulties. Firstly, ferric iron precipitate, proteins, thus interfering with digestion. Secondly, many ordinarily used .salts, such as ferrous carbonate, react with and use up hydrochloric acid in the stomach—a serious matter in the condition of archlorhydria so frequently concomitant with anaemia. • In FERROCHLOR E.B.S., the use of ferrous chloride overcomes both difficulties. Being a ferrous salt, it does not precipitate proteins; being a chloride, it cannot combine with the hydrochloric acid of the stomach. The addition of Vitamin BI improves the muscular tone of the patient, making him feel better jst| a big help in suc||] cessful therapy. E. B. S. chemists have, moreover, successfully attacked the problem of keeping an aqueous solution of ferrous chloride from oxidizing t4|p,he ferric forms. Samples from production runs of over four years ago still show no trace of ferric ions. Ferrochlor, E. B. S. is indicated in all cases of hypochromic microcytic anaemia.
