Dyfazine 1% Cream 500g

Dyfazine 1% Cream is a topical antimicrobial preparation belonging to the sulfonamide class of medicines, formulated with silver sulfadiazine as its active ingredient. It's generally well tolerated, though some people may notice mild skin irritation, a burning or stinging sensation on application, temporary skin discolouration, or an allergic-type rash in more sensitive individuals. It's a prescription item in most cases, so it's typically dispensed under medical guidance. As with most topical antimicrobials, consistent and correct application matters more than the amount used, so following your doctor's or pharmacist's instructions closely will give you the best experience with this product.

The cream is usually applied once or twice daily, or as reapplication is needed to maintain an even layer over the treated area, in line with your doctor's instructions. Treatment duration and frequency are typically tailored by the treating physician based on the extent and depth of the affected skin area. myHealthbox

Dyfazine 1% Cream is for external (topical) use only and is applied directly to clean, dry skin using a sterile gloved hand or spatula. The cream is applied over the affected area to a depth of about 3–5 mm, and reapplied to any area from which it has been removed by activity such as washing or dressing changes. Hands should be washed before and after each application, and the container cap replaced tightly after use. myHealthbox
