Helpful Tips:
Change the wound dressing in a closed room with minimal air circulation in order to prevent anything from getting into your wound or in the cream itself. Cut the dressing to the appropriate size and use a sterile instrument to apply the cream onto the gauze. Sterilize the instrument or use one that is disposable for the next time. The amount of Silver Sulfadiazine Cream should be enough to cover the entire wound and the cream should be 1/16 inch in thickness. The cream may turn the gauze a brownish color when applied to fresh wounds.
