The author tried the garlic preparation allizatin in 50 cases of acute and subacute intestinal catarrhs, mainly enteritis and enterocolitis. In most cases, already after the first intake (two tablets 3-4 times a day) the undoubted intestinal soothing effect of the remedy was noticed; the number of bowel movements decreased and their consistency became normal usually already after 2 days. A rapid restoration of appetite was also noticeable.
