Woch., 1923, no. 37-38)LuriaR.info@eco-vector.com1512192319697971509202115092021Copyright © 1923, Eco-Vector1923<p>Checking the treatment of anemia proposed in 1922 by the Swedish physician Lindberg with large doses of iron, Barkan applied this method in a number of cases of chlorosis and secondary anemia. Patients received pro dosi 0.5 ferri reducti without any additions to it and quickly reached 3.0 per day. Against all expectations these large doses, at least 10 times the usual dose of this drug, were perfectly tolerated by the patients, without causing any side effects from the stomach or constipation.</p>Kazan Medical archiveКазанский медицинский архив
