- Method of therapeutically treating warm blooded animals and compositions therefor
-
Tissue in warm blooded animals which is damaged and/or infected is treated by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a composition containing a novel catalyst and water soluble catalyst treated lignite. The treatment is also effective in relieving stress and/or shock. In a further variant, warm blooded animals having damaged and/or infected tissue are treated with a composition containing therapeutically effective amounts of at least one antibiotic, the novel catalyst, and the catalyst treated lignite. Novel compositions are provided which contain therapeutic amounts of at least one antibiotic, the catalyst, and the catalyst treated lignite. The novel catalyst and the catalyst treated lignite are prepared by processes described in detail hereinafter.
