:uhoh21: I never knew that Silvadene was a sulfa drug!!! I can't believe it...I got burned this a.m. and the nurse said "if you open this stuff in the same room w/ a pt who is allergic to sulfa they'll..." and then she acted like she was dying. I used that stuff on burn pts in the ER for FOUR years, and even though the MD ordered it and, hopefully, checked allergies, I still didn't know. I feel awful. I never saw any of my pts go into anaphylaxis after I applied it, and I never had any reports of pts coming back and c/o allergic reaction to the Silvadene, but I feel like a class A idiot. I thought it was just for the pain of the burn, and to cool the skin until the burn healed. I didn't even know it was an antibiotic cream! Jeez, I'm an IDIOT. Should I worry that I put this stuff on some sulfa sensitive pt or should I let it go? Another RN I worked w/ said she didn't know this either. Has anyone else experienced something similar? Please help me!:uhoh21:
