The Possible Clinical Significance of Factors of the Vitamin B₂ Complex other than Nicotinic Acid¹

At present the most likely clinical applications of vitamin B₂ factors (other than nicotinic acid) would seem to be the use of relatively crude preparations of the complex made from liver or yeast or possibly another suitable source. Such crude preparations, probably cruder than the parenteral extracts now used in the treatment of pernicous anemia, may prove to be of value in the treatment of (a) some specific derangements of liver function (b) certain types of dermatitis and (c) some anemias.
