As with all products containing silver sulfadiazine, the following precautions should be noted, especially when covering a large surface area with the dressing.
1. Use caution in patients with significant hepatic or renal impairment,
2. Use caution in individuals known to have glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency,
