Foster, Milburn & Co. was a patent medicine manufacturer and distributor, organised circa 1860 by Orrin E. Foster and Thomas Milburn at Toronto, Ontario, with a branch for handling American sales established at Buffalo, New York in the 1870s. Their most well-known product was Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil, the formula for which they purchased from S. N. Thomas in 1876.

A formula "similiar to Thomas" is given by "Fenner's complete formulary" (1889) as: "Camphor, ½ oz.; Oil Gaultheria, ½ oz.; Oil Origanum, ½ oz.; Chloroform, 1 oz.; Laudanum, 1 oz.; Oil Sassafras, 1 oz.; Oil Hemlock, 1 oz.; Oil Turpentine, 1 oz.; Balsam fir, 1 oz.; Tincture Guaiacum, 1 oz.; Tincture Catechu, 1 oz.; Alcohol, 4 pt.; Alkanet, sufficient to color."
