Acetarsol (or acetarsone[1]) is an anti-infective drug.[2]

It was first discovered in 1921 at Pasteur Institute by Ernest Fourneau,[3] and sold under the brand name Stovarsol.[4][5] It has been given in the form of suppositories.[6]

Acetarsol can be used to make arsthinol.[citation needed]

It has been cancelled and withdrawn from the market since August 12th, 1997.[3]
