Prior to antiboitics, it was used to treat VD.

I remember Golden Eye Ointment ... ah, those were the days!

To treat VD?

Golden Eye Ointment - EYE Ointment ... for the eyes ... it contained Hg as I
remember.

Then there was gripe water which soothed babies because of its alcohol
content. if it didn't work on the babies the mothers drank it. They took
that off the market too. Spoil everything, The Authorities.
