Tannon or Tannopin — A new conden- 

 sation product of tannin and hexameth- 

 ylenetetramine ; a bright-brown, light, 

 slightly hygroscopic, tasteless powder. It 

 is almost insoluble in water, weak acids, 

 alcohol and ether, but it is slowly soluble 

 in weak, alkaline fluids, and contains 87 

 per cent, of tannin and 13 per cent, of 

 hexamethylenetetramine. Recommended 

 in typhoid and cholera infantum.

 ing in vaccination and surgical operations. 

 It is stated to be an emulsion consisting 

 of wax, acacia and water in the respective 

 proportions of 1:2:3, and containing be- 

 sides 5 per cent, of zinc oxide, and a small 

 quantity of lanolin. Tegmin, when ap- 

 plied to the skin, forms a smooth, white, 

 elastic coat. It can also be used as a 

 vehicle for medicinal substances. 



Tenaline — This is a new preparation 

 prepared from areca nut, with the object 

 of retaining the teniafuge alkaloids 

 arecaine, arecaidine and guvacine, and 

 eliminating, so far as possible, the toxic 

 principle arecoline ; of great value as a 

 vermifuge, especially for tapeworms, in 

 the dog aud cat. It has the advantage 

 over powdered areca nut that it is much 

 easier to administer, as its bulk is small, 

 and that a purgative is not necessary. 

 On human beings tenaline has not been 

 used as yet. 



Tenide — Remedy for diabetes. 



Tetra Iodo-Ethylene — Inodorous suc- 

 cedaneum for iodoform. 



Terralin — A new ointment base possess- 

 ing the advantages of non-liability to de-

 the name of " terralin " has been given, 

 is a mixture of plaster-of-paris. kaolin, 

 silica, lanolin, glycerin and antiseptics. 

 It has a yellowish-white color, a pleasant, 

 earthy odor, and a consistency like that 

 of lanolin, though more plastic. It is 

 comparatively heavy, and is readily re- 



moved from the skin by simply washing 

 with water. (This terralin must not be 

 confounded with the " terraline " on the 

 market for a number of years and used 

 internally as a tissue reconstructive.)

 particularly useful where a diuretic effect 

 is desired beside the specific one of sali- 

 cylic acid. Ursal is regarded as an excel- 

 lent substitute for sodium salicylate, in 

 similar doses, and as free from unpleas- 

 ant by-effects. 



Usane — Dental local anaesthetic. 



Validol — Menthol and valerianic acid 

 have been combined to form a valerianic 

 acid menthol ester recommended as an 

 efficient analeptic and antihysteric ; a 

 colorless, limpid fluid of the consistency 

 of glycerin ; of a mild agreeable odor and 

 a refreshingly cool, faintly bitter taste. 

 It is a good solvent of menthol, and hence 

 permits the^ latter to be applied in larger 

 quantity than is contained in validol it- 

 self. The remedy is given in doses of 

 from 10 to 15 drops per day, on sugar.
