My doctor made a wise choice as per usual. I had no idea of the power of this med until I searched online. It checked the early stage of infection from the start of use. I will be cautious in its use and enjoy watching the healing of my 2nd degree motorcycle exhaust would 4" above the ankle bone. Found the pain of the stretching skin each time I'd get up in the mornings or afternoon naps, a bit of...
A doctor prescribed this for my daughter even though she is allergic to sulfa. Her burn is worse and she is having an allergic reaction on top of everything. I am very upset with her doctor. She is an adult so I didn't know what she had put on her burn since she has her own house. Doctors should be more careful.

Although this medication is effective and is working on my burns caused by an airbag explosion to my arm, I do have a heart condition and have had a reaction to some of the ingredients when mixed with my beta-blocker. Be careful if you have a heart condition while taking a beta-blocker and this cream b/c of the mixture of alcohol. Beta-blockers and alcohol shouldn't be mixed. It caused me to have an a-fib reaction.

I burned my leg on a wood chipper muffler; My Dr. described it as a 2nd degree burn. This cream has almost completely healed the burn and surrounding tissue it has been only 6 days since I stared using it. I am amazed at how well it is doing and it really does not look as if I will end up with huge scar! I am more than pleased.

I had a severe allergic reaction to an adhesive; my skin got all blistered and looked like it was severely sunburned. My doctor prescribed this medication and so far it's working great.

We call this the "amazing burn stuff" and try to keep a fresh container in the first aid kit at all times. Within days, for most common kitchen burns, the burn disappears, and within minutes of application, there is relief from the pain of the burn.

I had a complete hole in my skin about the size of a silver dollar due to skin thinning creams. The Silver Sulfadiazine healed the skin back together in 8 days. My doctor was throughly amazed.
