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.

BGO user for 40 years Says:
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!

Re: Jacob (# 5)
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 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}

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!

We have a bottle of BGO and we would love to purchase more. You can read the ingredients on the bottle, but no amounts are given. I wish I could send a picture, I would.

Corner Drugs Says:
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.

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.

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.

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.
