Silver Sulfadiazine Coupons & Savings Card – Discount Prices from $6.00

Silver sulfadiazine is a prescription antibiotic cream designed to prevent and treat serious skin infections in patients with second- or third-degree burns. It works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, thereby reducing the risk of these bacteria spreading to surrounding skin or entering the bloodstream, which can lead to severe infections such as sepsis. This medication is applied once or twice daily after cleaning the wound. It belongs to the sulfa antibiotics class and should not be used on premature infants or newborns under two months old due to potential serious side effects. Common side effects include rash and redness at the application site, with rare instances of serious allergic reactions. Always consult with a healthcare professional before using this medication.
