When I was about 21 in about 1956 my doctor wrapped cotton around wires, dipped them in argerol and then inserted them way up into my nasal passages, then applied heat to my face and after a while maybe 20 minutes removed them. This treatment was supposed to promote drainage from my sinuses. It wasn't very pleasant but seemed to work for a while, at least as well as several courses of penicillin which I have been prescribed in recent years.

A friend turned me on to it a long time ago, I used it to treat colds and flu like symptoms. I have looked for it and I found the same results as Vicki. I think the reason they took it off the market is that they found it to work better than the other remedies that are out on the market.

My Grandmother told me about argyrol and I raised my three girls using it to stop any sore throat infections. After all my Grandmother raised 12 kids out on a N. Dakota farm. I haven't been able to find it for several years and was told it was no longer available. Argyrol is the only product that I know of to STOP sore throats almost instantly. It was quite expensive, but when you think of what a Dr's visit cost, it wasn't that bad. It's good to know that other prople are aware of it and I will keep looking for a way to buy it. I have tried coloidal silver without any success.

Funny how it was supposed to be toxic - my dad used to make me sniff up argerol when I was little and let it trickle down my throat - It helped with many super bad sore throats and I am now 55 and still kicking.

Yes, Vicki is correct, Algerol was actually Silver Nitrate, which of course was found to be toxic when ingested.

Last year, I searched all over the country and made inquiry of people overseas.....apparently, Argerol can't be purchased anywhere, even with a prescription. Most of the pharmacists I spoke with, had never even heard of it. I did run across an older, more experienced pharmacist who remembered the drug and said it had been off the market for about 15 years.
Sorry :-(

Does anyone know where Argerol can be purchased? My 85-year-old mother has a nasal infection that antibiotics aren't curing. Argerol has helped her in the past, but she ran out recently and her phramacist hasn't been able to order more. This is URGENT.
Thanks.
