Key takeaways

Medications for wound care are used to treat skin ulcers, surgical wounds, and issues related to burns. They work in various ways to promote healing and prevent infection. Common classes include antimicrobial agents, enzymatic debriders, and antiseptics. Antimicrobial agents like silver sulfadiazine (SSD, Silvadene, Thermazene) are usually applied as topical creams. Enzymatic debriders, such as collagenase (Santyl), help remove dead tissue and are also applied topically. Antiseptics like chlorhexidine (Hibiclens) come in liquid form for cleaning wounds.
