Abstract
Compositions which include 1-ethyl-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(1-piperazinyl)-3-quinoline carboxylic acid or its metal salts, e.g., silver, zinc, cobalt or cerium salts, and silver sulfadiazine are effective in the treatment of burns. Of special interest are compositions containing silver sulfadiazine and the silver salt of the above-identified quinoline carboxylic acid, wherein even though each compound is present in a concentration which would be ineffective if either compound were present alone, the resulting compositions are effective. The compositions of this invention may be applied to the affected surface of a burn victim either directly or in combination with a physiologically acceptable carrier, such as a water-dispersible, hydrophilic carrier.
