How to apply Silver Sulfadiazine Cream
Apply this medication to the wound using sterile technique (such as wearing sterile gloves and using sterile application tools), as directed by your doctor, usually 1 to 2 times daily.

Treatment usually continues until the wound is completely healed or until the site is ready for skin grafting.
Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, use it at the same time(s) each day.
Tell your doctor if your condition persists or if it worsens
This medication is for use on the skin only.
Your health care professional will clean and remove the dead tissue from the wound to help the healing process.
