What is the medication for a fruitless sunburn that you capture at the hospital?

Its no ASA, or Benadryl. Its a nonprescription medication. I believe it has to be administered via IVWhat is the medication for a fruitless sunburn that you capture at the hospital?
I am a nurse (22 yrs) and as far as I know, at hand is no such drug. We give IV fluids when someone have a bad burn or is dried out, but that's about it. in that is ot much you can do once burned, just maintain hydrated and allow the skin to heal.
If near is infection, there may be a have need of for antibiotic(not necessarily IV). For sunburns you should apply creams or ointments resembling calendula and keep the nouns clean. Some anti-inflammatory med may also be required.
