About S-Gel Gel

S-Gel Gel is a topical medication used to treat wound infections. It helps in wound healing caused by serious burns and cuts. A burn is damage to the external skin or deeper tissues caused by various reasons.

S-Gel Gel contains Nanocrystalline silver as an active ingredient. It forms a gel and releases nanocrystalline silver cations onto the wound bed when it comes into contact with wound exudate, demonstrating its absorbent quality.

S-Gel Gel may cause certain side effects, such as burning, irritation, itching, and redness at the application site. These side effects gradually resolve during the treatment and do not require medical attention. Apply S-Gel Gel as advised by your doctor.

Discontinue the use and inform your doctor if you observe any allergic reactions after applying the medicine. Let your doctor know if you have any previous allergies to topical medicines, silver-containing products, or liver/kidney problems before using S-Gel Gel. Please consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Description

The S-Gel is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial gel formulated with 0.002% of silver nanoparticles. This innovative use of nanocrystalline silver allows the gel to penetrate deep into the skin. It promotes wound healing by preventing infection and reducing inflammation in wounds.

S-Gel works by reducing local matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity and increasing neutrophil apoptosis within the wound, which helps accelerate the healing process. Plus, the silver nanoparticles are known for inducing scarless wound healing, making it ideal for visible wounds or cuts. This silver gel has minimal systemic toxicity risk, making it an excellent choice for treating cuts, burns, and various types of wounds including surgical and accidental injuries, diabetic foot infections, pressure ulcers, and venous ulcers.

  • Topical Antimicrobial Action: S-Gel Gel releases silver ions upon contact with wound exudate, which disrupt bacterial cell walls and DNA, helping eliminate a broad spectrum of pathogens including bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
