Abstract

Dublin HYDROXY-PHENYLBUTAZONE (Tanderil) having proved in many cases an efficacious and less toxic substitute for phenylbutazone (Butazolidin) (Hart and Burley, 1959; Mason and Cramer, 1959), and having been noted by a rheumatologist (O'Reilly, 1958) to have a beneficial effect on iritis associated with rheumatic conditions, Messrs. Geigy have made a quantity available to me for the treatment of ocular diseases.
