1917 ad for Urodonal:

"Triumph of Modern Science

Rheumatism, Gravel, Gout, Arterio-Sclerosis, Obesity.

Medical Opinion: Urodonal is the most powerful solvent of uric acid, being 37 times more active than lithia.

It is rapidly absorbed by the digestive organs, does not over strain the stomach or kidneys, and can be used for any length of time; moreover, Uorodnal is rapidly eliminated through the kidneys - a point of great importance. The water in which it is held in solution passes through these organs more easily and rapidly than plain water, and that in spite of the load of waste products that Urodonal carries away with it.

Furthemore, the diuresis kidney secretion is regular and sustained, and there are no paroxysmal attacks such as those induced by certain diuretics which result in dangerous congestion of the kidneys."
