Silvadene (silver sulfadiazine) cream: Does "good" = "foot"? Silver sulfadiazene cream (SSD or Silvadene) is the best initial treatment for shallower burns. This is available by prescription only and so an evaluation by a doctor is required. An urgent care or emergency room makes sense for your injury so they can assess the depth of the burn, make sure your tetanus immunization is up to date and help you with dressing techniques.
