'''Basic lead acetate''', also known as '''subacetate of lead''', is the inorganic compound with the formula Pb3(OH)4(O2CCH3)2. A white solid, it is one of several [[lead acetate]]s.<ref name=Ullmann>{{Ullmann|first=Dodd S.|last=Carr|year=2005|title=Lead Compounds|doi=10.1002/14356007.a15_249}}</ref>

'''Goulard's extract''' is a solution of [[lead(II) acetate]]<ref>{{cite book |title=A System of Chemistry |last=Thomson |first=Thomas |authorlink=Thomas Thomson (chemist) |year=1810 |publisher=Bell & Bradfute |location=London |pages=v. 3,p. 275 |url=https://archive.org/details/asystemchemistr06thomgoog |quote=Goulard's Extract. }}</ref> and [[lead(II) oxide]] used as an [[astringent]]<ref>{{cite journal |last=Pereira |first=Jon. |title=Materia Medica, or Pharmacology, and General Therapeutics |date=1836-05-28 |journal=London Medical Gazette |volume=18 |pages=314 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=uiqZRrPgoLcC&dq=%22Goulard%27s+Extract%22+%2Bastringent&pg=PA314 |accessdate= 2008-02-25 }}</ref> during the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries. It was named after its introducer, [[Thomas Goulard]]. [[Lead poisoning]] and the development of more effective astringents caused doctors to abandon its use. Synonymous or very closely related formulations were known as ''liquor plumbi subacetis dilutus'',<ref>{{cite book|url=https://archive.org/details/medicallexicona03dunggoog|page=[https://archive.org/details/medicallexicona03dunggoog/page/n350 336]|title=A dictionary of medical science|publisher=Henry C.

The white water ''eau de Saturne'' differed from ''eau de Goulard'' in not containing alcohol, but was often confused with it.<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=huwRAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA91|title=Treatise on therapeutics|volume=1|author=Hermann Pidoux|year=1880}}</ref> Goulard's extract was a primary ingredient in both Goulard's cerate and Goulard's water.
