Key Benefits

Silverstream Liquid is a topical anti-infective, antiseptic, antibacterial, and cauterising agent. It is used to cauterise (burning or removing a part of a body) infected tissues around a skin wound. It creates a scab (protective tissue covering that forms after skin damage) to stop bleeding from a minor skin wound. It is also used to remove warts or skin tags. Silverstream Liquid contains 'Silver Nitrate,' which inhibits the growth of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Free silver ions of silver nitrate precipitate bacterial proteins by combining with chloride in tissue to form silver chloride. These ions also denature and coagulate cellular proteins, leading to the formation of an eschar, which is dead tissue that eventually separates from the wound.
