Acetarsol is an anti-infective.[2]

It was first discovered in 1921 at Pasteur Institute by Ernest Fourneau, and sold under the brand name Stovarsol (fourneau is the French word for stove).[3][4]

It has been given in suppositories.[5]

Acetarsol can be used to make Arsthinol, & presumably Acetarsone also.
