Salicylic acid is found in nature in the leaves and barks of Willows, in Oil of Wintergreen (Gaultheria), which is one of the chief sources of its supply, and is obtained synthetically from Carbolic acid.
Like Carbo-ac. it has been largely used as a disinfectant, and as it is supposed to be non-poisonous it is used for mixing with and so preserving foods.
The property of preventing foot-sweat is by no means an unmixed boon, and serious illness has resulted from Salicylicum acidum.
Consequently in homeopathic practice Salicylicum acidum has been found an excellent remedy for affections following suppression of foot-sweat.
Salicylicum acidum has a specific relation to joint pain, but the massive doses given in ordinary practice have been attended with so many unpleasant symptoms.
