If you notice any side effects while using this medicine, report them to your doctor immediately. Remember to continue using the cream for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Directions for Use of Slvrgen Cream 15gm

To use Slvrgen Cream correctly, follow these steps:

Ensure the affected area is clean and dry before applying the cream.
Apply a thin layer of the cream over the wound or burn.
Gently massage until the cream is fully absorbed.
Always wash your hands after applying to prevent spreading germs.
Consult your doctor for specific advice on how often and how long to use Slvrgen Cream.

Slvrgen Cream is applied topically.

Slvrgen Cream may have the following common side effects:

Itching
Redness
Mild burning sensation

In rare cases, there may be an allergic reaction, which can show up as:

Rash
Swelling
Difficulty breathing

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Slvrgen Cream. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Itching: Avoid scratching the affected area. Scratching can make the itching worse and lead to infection.
Mild burning sensation: If you feel a slight stinging after applying Slvrgen Cream, try applying it at a different time of day when it's more convenient for you.

Slvrgen Cream contains several active ingredients that work together to promote healing and prevent infection:

Silver Sulfadiazine (1%): This antibacterial agent inhibits the growth of bacteria, thus preventing the spread of infection in burns or wounds. It has a broad spectrum of activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate (0.2%): This ingredient is an antimicrobial agent that reduces the number of germs on the skin. By doing so, it helps in preventing and treating wound infections.
Recombinant Human Epidermal Growth Factor (10%): This protein stimulates cell growth and differentiation, thereby promoting wound healing by enhancing cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis - which means it helps form new blood vessels.
Sodium Methyl Paraben (0.18%) and Sodium Propyl Paraben (0.02%): These two ingredients are preservatives that extend the shelf life of the cream by preventing the growth of microorganisms.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while applying Slvrgen Cream if you are pregnant. To understand potential risks and benefits, it is best to consult your doctor before using this cream.

Breastfeeding

If you are breastfeeding, it's advisable to discuss with your doctor before starting the application of Slvrgen Cream. This is to evaluate any potential risks to the child.

Alcohol

Interactions between Slvrgen Cream and alcohol are unlikely as this is a topical product. However, for safety, always inform your doctor about your drinking habits.

Liver

Although rare for topical products like Slvrgen Cream, if you have any liver health issues, it's advised to consult your doctor before applying this cream.

Kidney

Likewise, kidney health concerns rarely affect the use of topical products. If you have any kidney conditions, it's still suggested to discuss them with your doctor before using Slvrgen Cream.

Using Machines & Driving

Slvrgen Cream, being a topical product, doesn't usually affect your ability to drive or operate machinery.

Allergy

Exercise caution if you're known to be allergic to any ingredients in Slvrgen Cream. In case of an allergic reaction, discontinue use and contact your doctor immediately.

Children

This cream is not recommended for children under 18 years of age without medical supervision. It's always best to consult a doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients might be more susceptible to side effects from Slvrgen Cream and should be used under medical supervision especially if patients are above 70 years of age or have liver and kidney issues. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Slvrgen Cream interacts with the following medicines:

Topical Antiseptics: Using Slvrgen Cream in conjunction with other topical antiseptics like povidone-iodine or hydrogen peroxide could diminish their bacterial killing potential. It's advisable to use them at different times.
Topical Steroids: Applying both corticosteroid creams such as betamethasone and Slvrgen Cream may influence the healing effect and potentially increase the risk of local skin reactions.
Wound Healing Agents: Co-application of Slvrgen Cream with other topical wound healing agents like Becaplermin may affect the overall wound healing process.

Drug-Food Interactions

There are no known interactions between Slvrgen Cream and any specific foods or beverages.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Slvrgen Cream interacts with the following diseases:

Dermatitis: If you have dermatitis, an inflammation of the skin, applying Slvrgen Cream might cause additional irritation or worsen your condition.
Skin Allergies: If you're prone to skin allergies, you might react to Slvrgen cream due to sensitivity to any of its ingredients.
Large Burns or Wounds: For people with large burns or wounds, using this cream may lead to absorption of silver sulfadiazine into the bloodstream, potentially causing side effects like kidney or liver damage.

Daily Dose

You should apply Slvrgen Cream as your doctor directs. The precise amount will depend on the severity of your condition and your response to the medicine. Ensure you follow your doctor's instructions carefully. For more specific details, please refer to the package insert.

Over Dose

Applying too much Slvrgen Cream might lead to skin reactions like redness, itchiness, or a mild burning feeling. If you accidentally apply more than you should, don't panic. Rinse the affected area with room-temperature water. Inform your doctor if these symptoms persist or worsen.

Missed Dose

Should you forget to apply Slvrgen Cream at the scheduled time, do so as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for your next application, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Don't apply extra cream to make up for a missed dose without consulting your doctor.

Store Slvrgen Cream at room temperature, ideally between 20 to 25°C.
Keep away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
Protect the tube from moisture.
Always keep the cream out of reach of children.
Ensure the tube is firmly closed after use to avoid contamination.

To assist in managing wounds and burns, ensure you maintain a healthy diet rich in protein. Protein aids in wound healing by helping your body repair damaged tissues.
Stay well hydrated. Good hydration is imperative for optimal skin health and can support faster recovery of your wounded or burned skin.
