Silver Sulfadiazine Cream 1%
Silver Sulfadiazine Cream 1% is a topical antibacterial cream that can be used on cats, dogs, and horses to prevent burns from becoming infected. Without treatment, burns can easily become infected with dangerous bacteria or yeast, which can prevent them from healing and lead to serious infections. Silver Sulfadiazine Cream 1% offers protection against yeast infections and a broad range of bacterial strains, including common strains like E-coli and Staph. The moisture of the cream can help relieve itching, which is common during the healing process.
Although scientists don't know exactly why silver sulfadiazine cream works, they do know that the antimicrobial agents within the sulfa-based cream help fight bacterial infections that are common in serious burns.
