Bgo Ointment (Page 2)

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.

I have a small jar of BGO that I have protected for 40+ years. It’s great for all uses, but I would love to have some for my nieces and nephews... it does a great job on acne! Please let me know if anyone has replicated it!

Please, I need to find some BGO. My grandma ordered it all the time until she passed away. I have not found it since.

I was raised 10 mins from the place that made BGO and my family used it always. This is the next best thing to it: Calmoseptine Ointment - 2.5 Oz Jar on Amazon. {affiliate link added}

Did you ever find out the precentages? Are you able to produce any BGO (or whatever name you will call it) in your compound pharmacy?
Please let me know. Thanks so much!!

I have been purchasing BGO Ointment (a compounded version) from Corner Drugs, Chatsworth, GA 706-695-0444 for the past year. I had to obtain a prescription, but my doctor was glad to do so when I explained the situation. As I understand it, all the items are available over the counter, but if you compound them, you have to have a script. The pharmacist (Jim Richards) is great to work with and can compound in various sizes. Give them a call and tell him that Terrye sent you... they were an answer to my prayers!

Thank you.... Daria

Re: Jacob (# 5) Expand Referenced Message

Please make this ointment. So many people looking for something to replace BGO. I’m 64 years old & my husband’s step father was a pharmaceutical salesman years ago. My husband had acne as a teenager which was constantly irritated by perspiration from playing sports. He says he could put BGO on acne before bed & the zits would be dried up by morning. My chin has starting breaking out from other medical problems and I would try anything to get rid of them. Any suggestions? Any encouragement about BGO type Creme or ointment?

I loved bgo for putting on an ingrown toe nail. I have a problem with ingrown toe nails for years and it would allow me to get the toe nail out. Please if it is being made and released I would sure love to know how to get this product.
