Silcoll Cream
Prescription Required
Product introduction
Silcoll Cream is a medicine that is used in the treatment of burns and wound infections. It helps kill or stop the growth of harmful bacteria. This helps reduce the risk of infection in burns and wounds and promotes faster healing.
Use Silcoll Cream exactly as directed by your doctor. Clean the affected area gently and make sure it is dry. Then apply a thin layer of medicine over the affected area. Wash your hands before and after applying it to avoid spreading germs. For best results, use it regularly as prescribed and do not stop the treatment early, even if the wound starts to improve. Keep the treated area clean, avoid scratching or touching it, and follow any additional care instructions given by your doctor.
Silcoll Cream is usually well tolerated, but some people may experience mild side effects. These may include slight burning, itching, redness, or irritation at the site of application. These effects are generally mild and go away on their own. If you notice any worsening of symptoms or signs of an allergic reaction, such as a rash, swelling, or severe itching, stop using the medicine and seek medical advice.
Before using Silcoll Cream, let your doctor know if you are allergic to silver or any ingredients in the medicine. Avoid getting it into your eyes, mouth, or deep wounds unless your doctor has advised it. Do not use other topical products on the same area unless told to do so, as this may interfere with the medicine’s action. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any other medical conditions, discuss with your doctor before starting the treatment.
