NEURASTHENIA.
Irritability, over-sensitiveness, a disposition to worry over trifles, headache, dizziness —these are symptoms of nervous exhaustion, neurasthenia.
Very often the patient feels best and brightest at night. Rest seems to bring no refreshment, the nervous system fails to recuperate. This distressing condition is caused by worry more often than by any other one thing. Overwork and worry invite the disorder.
The treatment is one of nutrition of the nerve cells, requiring a nonalcoholic tonic. As the nerves get their nourishment from the blood the treatment must be directed towards building up the blood. Dr Williams’ Pink Pills act directly on the blood and with proper regulation of the diet have proved of the greatest benefit in many cases of neurasthenia. A tendency to anoemia, or blocdlessness, shown by most neurasthenic patients, also corrected by these tonic pills. Your own chemist sells Dr Williams' Pink Pills at 3s per bottle. 4
