The Quigley Corporation Test Markets PainGoes®
a New OTC Pain Relieving Spray

--Baseball Hall of Fame Relief Pitcher, Rollie Fingers to be
Spokesperson on Internet Vlog, www.rolliesfollies.com--

DOYLESTOWN, PA. - July 12, 2006 - The Quigley Corporation (Nasdaq: - QGLY) announced today that it will launch PainGoes®, a new Over-the-Counter (OTC) pain relieving spray for temporary relief of minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with arthritis, simple backache, strains, bruises and sprains. The new PainGoes® product is completely independent of Quigley Pharma's proposed RX formulations currently under development.

The company has contracted the assistance of Rollie Fingers, the baseball Hall of Fame great, for the introduction and marketing of the product. The initial marketing and product availability will be exclusively through an Internet Vlog located at www.RolliesFollies.com.

Guy Quigley, President and CEO of Quigley commented, "The era of Vlogs is upon us and this new media vehicle allows us to test market PainGoes® with minimal expense. Rollie Fingers is on the air five days a week with fresh new content, and we believe our Vlog will appeal to a wide variety of sports fans around the world. This is a totally new approach to conventional advertising and we are hopeful that the retail drug chains, mass merchandisers and many other diverse sales organizations will join with us in this endeavor to reach people online. We welcome people to visit www.RolliesFollies.com as often as they like."

PainGoes® is virtually odorless, non-greasy and does not burn when either sprayed on, or gently rubbed into skin and allowed to dry. It was extremely well received in previous limited test marketing by people who exercised a great deal, either by working or being involved in sports, as well as those with various arthritic conditions.

Quigley Corporation's Chief Operations Officer, Charles A. Phillips said, "We believe that the vast number of high-speed Internet users can best be reached through this new global marketing approach. Mr. Fingers, through his tales of the Great American Pastime, baseball, as well as interviews with people of all walks of modern life, will bring an exciting new level of energy to the Internet."

The Quigley Corporation makes no representation that the US Food and Drug Administration or any other regulatory agency will grant an Investigational New Drug ("IND") or take any other action to allow its formulations to be studied or marketed. Furthermore, no claim is made that potential medicine discussed herein is safe, effective, or approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Additionally, data that demonstrates activity or effectiveness in animals or in vitro tests do not necessarily mean the formula test compound, referenced herein will be effective in humans. Safety and effectiveness in humans will have to be demonstrated by means of adequate and well controlled clinical studies before the clinical significance of the formula test compound is known.
