Usage

Silvadene (Silver Sulfadiazine) is a prescription medication used to prevent and treat infection of a wound in people with second and third-degree burns on their body. The active ingredient in Silvadene cream is Silver Sulfadiazine. Silvadene belongs to a class of medications called sulfa drugs (antibiotics). Silver Sulfadiazine works by stopping the growth of bacteria that may infect an open wound. It helps to decrease the risk of the bacteria spreading to the surrounding skin or to the blood, where it can cause a severe infection.

Side Effects and Precautions

The common side effects of Silvadene are itching of the application site, burning sensation of the affected part, pain, skin rash, and depigmentation or changes in skin color.

Stop using Silvadene and contact your doctor right away if you have any of the serious side effects such as:
• Change in discharge or exudate (the fluid that leaks from infected areas);
• Increased body pain;
• Signs of kidney problems such as red or pink urine, little or no urinating, swelling, rapid weight gain;
• Sudden weakness or ill feeling, fever, chills, sore throat, mouth sores, red or swollen gums, trouble swallowing;
• Unexplained bruising or bleeding;
• Weakness;
• Yellowing of the eyes or skin

Warnings and Interactions

This cream is for external use only. Suppose you have increased sensitivity or are allergic to silver sulfadiazine. In that case, other sulfa antibiotics (such as sulfamethoxazole) or any of the ingredients in Silvadene cream, this medication may not be suitable for you. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your drug or food allergies to ensure you are fit for this medication. You should avoid getting this medication in contact with your eyes or mouth. To use the medication effectively, follow your doctor's prescription carefully. You should apply the Silvadene cream following an aseptic technique (by wearing a glove) and ensure the application site is clean. Apply the cream to cover the whole area evenly. Treated areas can be uncovered, but a dry gauze dressing may be used if your doctor directs you. It would be best to continue applying this cream even if you think your skin condition is better. Do not stop using except on your doctor's advice. Inform your doctor if your skin infection or burn does not improve within a few days or weeks or if it becomes worse despite following your prescription.

Before you start using Silvadene, inform your doctor about your medical history, especially if you have:
• A genetic enzyme deficiency called glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency;
• An allergy to sulfa drugs;
• Kidney disease;
• Liver disease

Tell your doctor about all the medications you use, including prescriptions, over-the-counter medications, herbal products, and vitamin supplements. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. Silvadene Cream should not be used on pregnant women approaching or at term. It's not known if Silvadene is excreted in breast milk. It is important to reach out to your doctor if you are nursing a baby. There may be a drug interaction between Silvadene and other drugs, such as other skin products containing sodium sulfacetamide, methotrexate, and methenamine.
