Doctors Know!
... and they use
liquid laxatives
You'd use a liquid, too, if yon knew
how much better it makes you fed.
A liquid laxative can always be
takeu in the right amount You can
gradually reduce the dose. Reduced
dosage is the secret of real and safe
relief from constipation.
Just ask your own doctor about
this. Ask your druggist how popular
liquid laxatives have become. The
right liquid laxative gives the right
kind of help —and the right amount
of help. When the dose is repeated,
instead of more each time, you take
less. Until the bowels are moving
regularly and thoroughly without aid.
People who have experienced this
comfort, never return to any form of
help that can't be regulated 1 The
liquid laxative generally used is Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It contains
senna and cascara, and these are
natural laxatives that form no habit.
It relieves a condition of biliousness
or sluggishness without upset.
To relieve your occasional upsets
nfely and comfortably, try Syrup
Pepsin. The druggist has it.
