However, no sound scientific studies evaluating these health claims have been published in reputable medical journals. In the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration and the Federal Trade Commission have taken action against several companies for making unproven health claims.
When taken by mouth, silver builds up in your body. Over months to years, this can result in a blue-gray discoloration of your skin, eyes, internal organs, nails and gums. Doctors call this argyria (ahr-JIR-e-uh). It's usually permanent. In rare cases, high doses of colloidal silver can cause serious side effects, such as seizures and organ damage.
Colloidal silver may also interact with prescription medicines, including penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen), quinolone antibiotics, tetracycline and levothyroxine (Unithroid, Levoxyl, Synthroid).
Yes.
Some additional information:
The TGA quote โColloidal silver ingredients and silver salts have been marketed in OTC drug products for the treatment and prevention of numerous disease conditions. There are serious and complicating aspects to many of the diseases these silver ingredients purport to treat or prevent. Further, there is a lack of adequate data to establish general recognition of the safety and effectiveness of colloidal silver ingredients or silver salts for OTC use in the treatment or prevention of any disease. These ingredients and salts include, but are not limited to, silver proteins, mild silver protein, strong silver protein, silver, silver ion, silver chloride, silver cyanide, silver iodide, silver oxide, and silver phosphate.โ

In a Regulatory Impact Statement by the TGA, the following is clear:
โUnsubstantiated therapeutic claims
To assist in assessing the risk to public health associated with the promotion of colloidal metal products for serious disease, the expert committee advising on the regulation of complementary medicines, the Complementary Medicine Evaluation Committee (CMEC), was asked to review the toxicity and efficacy of colloidal silver based on the medical and scientific evidence. The CMEC advised that there was inadequate evidence to support therapeutic claims for this product type.โ
Silver has useful medical applications, but ingesting it as a colloidal metal product is not one of them.
