ACIDUM TANICUM powder ( ???????? ???????? - TANIN) 20gr For medical use exp. date: 13.02.1017 lot No. 514007 certificate: 03210213     THE INTRODUCTION OF TANNIC ACID TREATMENT OF SEVERE BURN INJURIES IN THE 1920S SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED MORTALITY RATES. DURING WORLD WAR I, TANNIC ACID DRESSINGS WERE PRESCRIBED TO TREAT "BURNS, WHETHER CAUSED BY INCENDIARY BOMBS, MUSTARD GAS OR LEWISITE... WHERE TANNIC ACID IS NOT AVAILABLE, STRONG, LUKEWARM TEA IS A GOOD SUBSTITUTE." AFTER THE WAR THIS USE WAS ABANDONED DUE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF MORE MODERN TREATMENT REGIMENS.  TANNIC ACID IS STILL USED IN PHARMACEUTICAL APPLICATIONS TO PRODUCE ALBUMINE TANNATE WHICH IS USED AS AN ANTI-DIARRHEA AGENT. TANNIC ACID IS ALSO USED TO PRODUCE TANNATE SALTS OF CERTAIN ANTI-HISTAMINS AND ANTI-TUSSIVES TO IMPART INCREASED STABILITY OR SLOW RELEASE PROPERTIES TO THE API (ACTIVE PHARMACEUTICAL INGREDIENT). FURTHER TO THIS, TANNIC ACID IS THE PRINCIPLE BUT PERHAPS MINIMALLY EFFECTIVE INGREDIENT IN ANTI-ALLERGEN SPRAYS.  TANNIC ACID APPLIED DIRECTLY CAN TREAT DIAPER RASH, PRICKLY HEAT, POISON IVY, INGROWN TOENAILS, AND SKIN RASHES; AND TO STOP BLEEDING.  ORALLY, TANNIC ACID APPLIED DIRECTLY CAN TREAT SORE THROAT AND TONSILS, SPONGY OR RECEDING GUMS, COLD SORES AND FEVER BLISTERS. WHEN CONSUMED, TANNIC ACID CAN MEDICATE BLEEDING, CHRONIC DIARRHEA, DYSENTERY, BLOODY URINE, PAINFUL JOINTS, PERSISTENT COUGHS, AND CANCER.  VAGINALLY, TANNIC ACID CAN BE USED AS A DOUCHE FOR WHITE OR YELLOWISH DISCHARGE, I.E, LEUKORRHEA. A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW BY CHUNG ET AL. (1998) FOUND THAT TANNINS HAVE ALSO BEEN REPORTED TO EXERT MANY PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS, SUCH AS TO ACCELERATE BLOOD CLOTTING, REDUCE BLOOD PRESSURE, DECREASE THE SERUM LIPID LEVEL, PRODUCE LIVER NECROSIS, AND MODULATE IMMUNORESPONSES. THIS WOULD EXPLAIN COMMON FOLKLORE SUCH AS THAT SOAKING FEET IN TANNIC ACID (OR STRONG TEA) CAN TREAT OR PREVENT BLISTERS, FOOT ODOR AND ROUGH, DRY FEET. A FURTHER EXAMPLE IS THAT "A POPULAR HOME REMEDY TO STOP THE BLEEDING AFTER WISDOM TOOTH EXTRACTION IS APPLYING TEA BAGS IN THE BACK OF THE JAWS AND BITING DOWN, GIVEN THAT THE TANNIC ACID IN TEA HELPS TO CLOT BLOOD."
