Silverpin Cream is a combination of two medicines: Sulfadiazine and Chlorhexidine Gluconate. Sulfadiazine is an antibiotic that stops bacteria from producing folic acid, a nutrient required for bacterial multiplication. Chlorhexidine Gluconate is an antiseptic and disinfectant that works by binding strongly with skin, killing infectious microorganisms and effectively cleaning out cuts, wounds, and burns to prevent them from getting infected.
