MARTIN & CO.’S 
SOLUTION OF PHOSPHORUS, 
Sol. Phosphori Odorat (Martin’s). 
T HIS solution supplies a want much felt and discussed of 
late, viz. , a suitable form of preparation for the adminis- 
tration of Phosphorus internally, combining both reliability 
and uniformity of strength. It is devoid of the unpleasant 
taste possessed by other solutions of this drug, does not fume, 
and will remain unaltered for any length of time, while it 
contains nothing which will interfere with its therapeutic 
action. When given in milk or cream, it has a pleasant 
flavour. 
Ten minims contain fa of a grain of purified Phosphorus, 
hence, the solution is about twice the strength of the saturated 
ethereal solution, and three times that of the alcoholic, both 
of which preparations are unreliable after being kept a short 
space of time. 
For Dispensing Purposes, with the addition of a small 
quantity of mucilage, it makes a perfect mixture. 
For the convenience of the profession who may wish to 
give it a trial, it is put up in sample bottles containing 1 oz. 
each, at Is. 6d. per oz.; and for the trade, in bulk, as follows : 
— 4-oz. bottles, 6s. each ; J-lb. do., 9s. each ; and 1-lb. bottles, 
168. per lb.
