New Anti-Hay Fever
Drug Discovered
-------------By PAUL F. ELLIS
United Press Science Editor
New York—(W)—A new anti-
hay fever drug, one that has a
prolonged effect, was disclosed
recently.
It is called phenergan and is
described as “one of the most
potent anti-histaminic drugs
known.” An anti-histaminic drug
combats the production of hista-
mine, which scientists believe
brings on allergic symptoms.
Phenergan, developed by scien-
tists of the Wyeth Company,
' Philadelphia, can be obtained only
, on a doctor’s prescription.
The Wyeth . Company bro
out the new drug after
been given extensive tria
Europe and the United St’ites.
Most testers found that it has only
one unfavorable side reaction. It
may make the user sleepy.
As a result, many doctors rec-
ommend that the drug be given
at bedtime so the patient can take
advantage of the drowsiness. The
reports said the anti-hay fevei
effect of the drug carries on to
the next day, after drowsiness has
worn off.
In one study, 134 out of 142
hay fever patients obtained relief.
In another group with hives, 108
out of 123 patients got relief
from itching and irritation. The
drug has had fair success in
treating asthma, according to the
reports to Wyeth, and success in
treatment of various forms ol
eczema also was obtained.
In a trial test against spasmodic
cough, the drug failed in every
case, it was reported.
An announcement by Wyeth
said:
“Phenergan belongs to, a chemi-
cal family which differs from
those anti-histaminics which are
in common use today. It has been
established that phenergan is ef-
fective in all allergic conditions
that are known to respond to anti-
histaminic treatment.”
The drowsiness effect, the re-
ports from investigators stfid, oc-
curs in about one out of
cases. But the unfavorable reac-
tion is outweighed by the drug's
prolonged effect which, it was
said, enables it to be administered
only once a day instead of three
or four times.
Weaver, Gaylon Rhymes, Robert
Shields, Jack Price, Reagan Hicks,
Philip Ogan, L. H. Matthews,
Charles Goff, Jack McCullough,
and Carl Harris, (mgr.), have
been recommended for varsity let-
ters. Congratulations!
This is the last issue of the
J-TAC for the spring semester,
1951 Looking back over the
sports picture, Tarletoa had a
very successful year in athletics.
The Plowboy football squad
might have won the Pioneer
Conference crown but for a
steared-up San Angelo team and
a near-zero West Texas blue
norther. Last year’s squad didn’t
“play ball”; they played Coach’s
Football.
Who can forget how Marvin
Brown often danced rings around
bewildered, would-be tacklers for
heart-breaking seconds at a time,
and then scampered away for a
touchdownT"Remember how Lloyd
Corder could buck the line and
quarterback Pence Dacus could
make a-football disappear some-
where in the backfield?
And what a line! Jack Jones,
Charles Goff, Lloyd Styles, John
Badgwell, Joe Edgar . . . T.S.C.
easily had the most rugged line
in the conference. In all, 1950
was a standout year for the
Plowboys.
