What are the medicinal values of sulfur powder?

With the continuous improvement and development of the social level and the continuous improvement and progress of production technology, sulfur powder, a chemical product, is widely used in daily life. The elemental sulfur in sulfur powder has oxidation and reduction properties. It can react with iron to form ferrous sulfide, and form sulfur hexafluoride with fluorine, and form carbon dioxide with carbon at high temperature. It is not only used in agriculture and chemical operations. In addition, sulfur powder has medicinal value.

The reaction of sulfur powder with chloral hydrate and ethanol can have a significant impact on the sleep of mice, and has a strengthening effect on the central restraint effect of chlorpromazine and thiopental sodium, and sulfur has a restraint effect on the brainstem.
