Hello,
Silvadene Cream is a commonly used to prevent and treat wound infections in people with second and third degree burns to their skin. It shouldn't be used to treat a baby with diaper rash. I suggest to use only Desitin ointment as time as needed.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
