RT Journal A1 Caro M T1 Thallium acetate: Table for estimating dosage JF Journal of the American Medical Association JO Journal of the American Medical Association YR 1929 FD June 1 VO 92 IS 22 SP 1834 OP 1834 DO 10.1001/jama.1929.92700480003010c UL http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.1929.92700480003010c AB The increasing use of thallium acetate for epilating the scalp in children suggested the preparation of a handy table for the estimation of the required dose. It is hoped that this will save considerable time and will minimize the possibility of error in calculating the dose for an individual patient. The table is based on the standard dose of 8 mg. of thallium acetate per kilogram of body weight.114 East Fifty-Fourth Street.
