Sulfacetamide Lotion

Generic Name: Sulfacetamide Lotion (sul-fa-SEE-ta-mide)
Brand Name: Seb-Prev and Sebizon

Sulfacetamide Lotion is used for:

Treating bacterial infections of the skin, including dandruff. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Sulfacetamide Lotion is a sulfonamide. It works by restricting the production of folic acid, which bacteria need for growth. This kills the bacteria.

Do NOT use Sulfacetamide Lotion if:

you are allergic to any ingredient in Sulfacetamide Lotion
you have had a severe allergic reaction (eg, severe rash, hives, difficulty breathing, dizziness) to any other sulfonamide medicine, such as acetazolamide, celecoxib, certain diuretics (eg, hydrochlorothiazide), glyburide, probenecid, sulfamethoxazole, valdecoxib, or zonisamide

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Sulfacetamide Lotion:

Some medical conditions may interact with Sulfacetamide Lotion. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
if you have asthma

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Sulfacetamide Lotion. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

Silver-containing products (eg, silver sulfadiazine) because the effectiveness of Sulfacetamide Lotion may be decreased

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Sulfacetamide Lotion may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.
