Silver as an Antibiotic-Independent Antimicrobial: Review of Current Formulations and Clinical Relevance

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Early forms of silver have more limited utility because of their uncontrolled release of silver ions and potential for systemic toxicity. Multiple new formulations show promise; however, there is a need for more prospective in vivo studies to validate the clinical potential of these formulations.
