About Sufrate Ssd Cream

Sufrate Ssd Cream is a topical antimicrobial medication primarily used to treat and prevent infections in second-degree and third-degree burns. Second-degree burns (partial-thickness burns) affect both the top layer (epidermis) and the underlying skin (dermis), causing pain and blistering. Third-degree burns (full-thickness burns) are the most severe, extending through all layers of skin and causing significant damage.

Sufrate Ssd Cream is a combination of three drugs: Chlorhexidine gluconate (an antiseptic), Silver sulfadiazine (an antibiotic), and Sucralfate (a skin protectant). Chlorhexidine gluconate works by strongly binding to skin proteins and killing the bacteria on the skin, thus preventing infection. Silver sulfadiazine works by inhibiting the production of folic acid, a vitamin necessary for bacterial multiplication, thereby destroying bacteria. Sucralfate helps speed up the healing process by promoting the growth of new skin. Together, Sufrate Ssd Cream effectively treats burns and prevents skin infection.

Sufrate Ssd Cream is for external use only. Your doctor will advise on how often to apply Sufrate Ssd Cream based on the severity of your burns. In some cases, it may cause common side effects such as skin irritation, itching, or a burning sensation at the application site.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Run cool water over the burn for 10-20 minutes or apply a cool, wet cloth until the pain eases.
  • Use a lotion with cocoa butter or aloe vera to prevent drying and provide relief.
  • Cover the burned area with a clean, loose-fitting bandage to reduce pain and protect blistered skin.
  • Do not scratch or pick the scab, as this can cause scarring and delay healing.
  • Avoid using harsh products on your skin to prevent irritation.
  • Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, and avoid drinking sugary beverages.
  • Consume protein-rich foods, such as yogurt, chicken, and eggs in your diet, as there is a loss of protein through burn wounds and the breakdown of muscles to produce extra energy for the healing process. Additional protein is required to rebuild lost muscle tissue.
  • Once the wound is healed, use sunscreen and moisturizer regularly to promote healing and prevent further damage.
