Excerpt from Supplement to the American Dispensatory
Properties and Uses - Bichloride of ethylene has been preposed as a much safer anesthetic than chloroform, but it has not come into use on account of the excessive irritation of the throat and fauces attending its inhalation. It is occasionally used locally, in spray or otherwise, to allay the sufferings in certain maladies, from pain, as in rheumatism, lumbago, neuralgia, etc.
