old remedy for skin rashes
I too am looking for Poslam Ointment.It was wonderful for fever blisters and acne. Any suggestions anyone?
DJM,
When and where was the last time that you bought Poslam? What did it cost? I can't find it for sale on the web.
My most recent container reads:
Medicated
POSLAM
Flesh Colored Skin Ointment
Net Wt. 3/4 OZ.
Ingredients: Tar Distillate, Sulfur, Salicylic Acid,Phenol 0.35%, Zinc Oxide, Menthol, Lanolin
Distributed by
Royal Sundries Corp.

Thank you Doug for the Poslam info. I had the address for Emergency Lab also along with the ingredients but not the recipe Thanks!!!!
Poslam used to be made by Emergency Laboratories, Jersey City, NJ 07302. I tried to find them in on-line phone directories but they don’t seem to exist any more. A pharmacist passed along this formula to my parents. A compounding pharmacy should be able to make it up. I don’t know if it is patented or not, nor can I vouch for the accuracy of the formula.
Base is tar distillate, zinc oxide 13.3%, sulfer 0.5%, salicylic acid 1.65%, menthol 0.6%, phenol 0.35%, lanolin 26%.
when I googled poslam, I was offered link to ebay, antique- bottle pictures show ingredients.
I am also looking for Poslam and cannot find a source. Maybe someone should start making it again. It's very effective for skin problems.
I am also looking for this product. From what I can tell it is no longer made but I won't give up yet.
Does anyone know where I can buy Poslam Ointment? My Grandmoyher used to have it and it's the best.
