About Silcoll Cream

Silcoll Cream 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.

Silcoll Cream 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.

Silcoll Cream 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 Silcoll Cream 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 Silcoll Cream. Please consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
