One of the most marked effects of influenza is the protractedness of convalescence in certain cases. In some instances return to normal vigor is very slow and as a result the below-par convalescent is a ready victim to respiratory or other complications.
As a means of hastening return to normal health, cod liver oil taken regularly for a long period has proven of the utmost advantage. However, if one does not want to meet with rebellion from the patient a palatable preparation must be chosen. If the influenza patient, who is showing a slow return to health is put on Cord. Ext. O1. Morrhae Comp. (Hagee), he will make no complaint as to lack of palatability and will show a gratifying gain in vigor.
In Cord. Ext. O1. Morrhae Comp. (Hagee) the physician has at his command a restorative agent of unusual palatability and one that he may rely upon to fulfil the needs in post-influenzal weakness.
