Bgo Ointment

Updated

BGO ointment last distributed by Calotabs Co. in Greenville, SC. Company has apparently closed...not further info. Ointment is an antiseptic, antifungal cream for relief of th athlete's foot, ringworm, hemorrhoids, externally caused blemishes, cracked lips, minor cuts, burn and bruises, corns, itching from burning skin due to sunburn and non venomous insect bites. Contains salicylic acid, sulphur, zinc oxide, phenol calamine, menthol, petrolatum lanolin and mineral oil. Have used this product for over 50 years and it works great. Would be so happy to find a new distributor if one exists.

This stuff is great. I still have one new bottle since i bought all the local drug store had a few years ago. I too have researched and not found anything on where we might get some more. It is good inside the mouth too, though not listed as an approaved application. It is good for a miriad of skin ailments as well as gums. Might be something wrong with putting it in the mouth, so you might be harmed by this use.
Legal aside this is wonderful medicine.

I have recently been informed about the healing properties of BGO Cream by a coworker. My wife and I own a Pharmacy named Beasley Drug Company with access to a compounding lab and are interested in discovering the formulation of B-G-O Ointment. The compounding laws are very specific, so when we figure out a similar equivalent, we will only be able to compound on request. I'll keep you informed of how the process goes. If anyone knows the percentages of the

I am 61 yrs old and have used BGO for 55+ years. It is FANTASTIC!!! My relatives used to come from Ohio and buy 6 containers at a time. I still have 1/2 bottle left and use it very sparingly. Hoping it will last until I die! It will heal a wound 3 times faster than anything I have ever tried.

My mother just scraped the last smidgen of the ointment out of her old white plastic container. She asked me to try and find her some more but saw that the company has closed.
WHY FOR GOODNESS SAKES!!!!! With so many people using it and loves it. Her mother my grandmother used it on everything. And swore it was miraculous.
Have you figure out the compound formula yet. Please keep me in the loop.
Thank you

Any 2015 update on Beasley Drug Company's efforts to reproduce BGO ointment? I sure would love to buy some. I've had a bottle of it since the 60's and it is down to smears in the bottle. I hope you can reproduce this great ointment.

Me too! My family can vouch for BGO and it does work miracles! I would love to be able to buy it again.

Do you think the formula would have a patent registered? If formulas are protected this way. I thought maybe Beasley Drug Company might find what they need to recreate the BGO ointment. I know I would buy it.

Regarding the compound ingredients and their percentages needed, would you be able to determine the percentages if someone who still had some of the product gave you some to experiment with? Several of the people who commented indicated they still had some of the product. Perhaps one of them would be willing to share some with you.

I own a pharmacy that can compound very similar (using the same active ingredients) then only thing different would be the inactive ingredients, like the ointment base. It would require a prescription but the pharmacist can handle that for you. Corner Drugs & Compounding Center, Chatsworth GA 30705 706-695-0444.

Just wondering if you were successful in getting the BGO reformulated and if it is available for a donation or is there a way to get it?

Re: Jacob (# 5) Expand Referenced Message

I have a bottle of BGO and the original box with the ingredients some of which list the percentages (I used it this morning). I discovered it in the '70s and later realized it was no longer available and contacted the makers and were able to get some as they were closing (down to my last bottle!) I have photographed and videoed the labels and complete story hoping someone can make it again. Many of us would love to be able to get hold of it again. Thanks, PJ, Florida.

Check out Casey's reply (# 55) - they listed ingredients which could potentially be taken to a compounding pharmacist, and they also provided a link to a possible alternative.
