Is Silver Safe?

Silver is a natural antimicrobial and has been used for centuries to prevent the growth of bacteria without the high toxicity to animals that is normally associated with some other metals. Since ancient times silver has been highly regarded both as a versatile healing tool and a means to prevent spoilage.

Before the discovery of synthetic antibiotics and antibacterial drugs in the early 20th century, conventional medical doctors used silver medicines to treat many serious medical conditions.  Since about 1980 silver has been used to prevent infections in many implanted medical devices including intravascular catheters, urological catheters and vascular grafts.
