Burnstep Cream is a uniquely formulated triple-action topical antimicrobial cream designed specifically for the treatment and prevention of infections in burns, cuts, and other skin injuries. It contains Silver Sulphadiazine (1.0%), Chlorhexidine Gluconate (0.20%), and Metronidazole (1.00%), all working synergistically to offer broad-spectrum protection against bacteria and other pathogens, while promoting faster healing of the skin.
-
Silver Sulphadiazine is a topical antibacterial agent widely used in burn therapy. It acts on the cell walls of bacteria, including both Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms, preventing infection and supporting wound healing. Its silver component provides a sustained antimicrobial effect at the wound site.
-
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is a powerful antiseptic that disrupts microbial cell membranes. It offers immediate bactericidal action and reduces microbial colonization on the skin, making it an ideal addition to the formulation for preventing infection in burns and open wounds.
-
Metronidazole is an effective antimicrobial and antiprotozoal agent that specifically targets anaerobic bacteria, which are commonly found in necrotic tissues and chronic wounds. It also reduces malodor in infected wounds and ulcers.
This combination cream is especially useful in treating first- and second-degree burns, surgical incisions, pressure sores, and diabetic ulcers. By forming a protective barrier and maintaining a moist wound environment, Burnstep Cream not only prevents infection but also accelerates epithelialization and tissue regeneration.
The cream is easy to apply and non-irritating, making it suitable for daily use in both hospital and home care settings. It can be applied directly to the affected area or used under dressings as advised by a healthcare professional.
Belonging to the Antibacterials, Antibiotic, Dermatology, and General and OTC Medicines therapy categories, Burnstep/Burntyle Cream plays a critical role in modern wound care and infection prevention strategies.
