  • Zam-Buk is a patent medicine which was produced by the Zam-Buk Company of Leeds, England, founded by Charles Edward Fulford. It was first sold by his Bile Beans company in 1902, as a herbal balm and antiseptic ointment; the use of a complementary Zam-Buk soap was recommended to augment the treatment. The ointment was advertised as being effective against a wide range of conditions, including cuts, bruises, sprains, ulcers, bleeding piles and even colds and toothache. It could also be used as an embrocation by rubbing it into the muscles of the back, legs or feet. The source of the name is uncertain, but a link to South Africa has been suggested. It remains very widely popular in South Africa. The brand name was at one time used to refer to ambulance-men and first aiders at rugby league matches in Australia and New Zealand. The product is still manufactured today, often by Bayer, who now owns the trade mark in some, but not all, countries. It is available in Southern Africa, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. (en)
  • «Zam-Buk» — торговое название лекарственного препарата одноимённой фармакологической компании, произведённого в Лидсе. Впервые продан в 1902 году компанией «Bile Beans» как бальзам со свойствами антисептика. Рекламировался также в качестве препарата по предупреждению геморроя и простуды, а также как обезболивающее при зубной боли и боли мышц спины, ног и ступней. Происхождение названия бренда неизвестно, однако считается, что оно связано с Южной Африкой. Некоторое время оно даже использовалось как имя нарицательное для санитаров, работавших на матчах по регби в Австралии и Новой Зеландии. Сегодня по-прежнему производится и продаётся в некоторых странах — в частности в Индонезии и Таиланде — под брендом компании «Bayer» (в некоторых регионах под другими брендами). (ru)
