Men
T h e modern treatment of disease involves many factors— among which chemotherapy becomes more vital every day. I n the treatment of disease and disabling allergies, medicines synthesized from organic chemicals have replaced m a n y of the less specific medicinal agents of past generations. Such medicinals as the sulfonamides, penicillin, streptomycin, anti-histamines and aspirin, either comfort the patient or make the control of his illness far more certain and effective. I n each case the broad availability of these drugs has been made possible by the development of synthetic organic chemicals which are necessary to their manufacture. Carbide and Carbon Chemicals has pioneered in synthe sizing and producing, on a large scale, dependable organic chemicals. Our technical representatives are well qualified to help you m a k e the best use of them in the development of your product.
