This drug consisted of the calcium salts of benzoic acid and cinchophen. It
would be dangerous to health when used in the dosage or with the frequency pre-
scribed, recommended, and suggested in the labeling, which directed the dosage
of one capsule four times a day, after meals and on retiring.
On September 18, 1939, the United States attorney for the Eastern District
of Pennsylvania filed an information against George T. Lambert, David Periera,
and George D. Lambert, trading as the Crescent-Kelvan Co., a business trust,
Philadelphia, Pa., alleging shipment by said defendants within the period from
on or about July 28 to on or about October 20, 1938, from the State of Pennsyl-
vania into the State of Maryland of quantities of Cal-co-cin, which was mis-
branded in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act for the reasons
stated above.
The information also charged that the article was misbranded in violation
of the Food and Drugs Act of 1906 reported in notice of judgment No. 30202
published under that act.
On December 8, 1939, pleas of nolo contendere were entered on behalf of the
defendants. On January 5, 1940, the court imposed fines amounting to $250 for
violation of both acts.
