What is Nystatin?
Nystatin is an antifungal infection with brand names like Nystatin, Mycostatin, Nilstat, and Nystat. It treats broad fungal infections, including skin or stomach lining infections caused due to candida species. It works by attacking the cell membranes of fungi species, making them leaky and unable to grow further, leading to being killed and destroyed.
It comes in different dosage forms, from oral tablets, vaginal applications, and topical creams/ointments, which will be used according to the prescription of your healthcare provider.
Uses of Nystatin
Nystatin is an antifungal medication that treats infections especially stomach linings and the skin.
How does it works?
Nystatin works by disrupting the cell membrane of the fungus. After disruption, the fungal cells will leak the components from the inside of the cell leading to shrinkage and death of fungal cells. Nystatin does not absorb in the bloodstream when taken, so its effectiveness shows in the areas in which it is applied for the treatment.
What are the dosage forms and strengths of Nystatin?
It comes in different dosage forms, including oral powder (100,000 units/g), oral suspension (100,000 units/mL), oral tablet, capsules, and topical creams. The dosage form and strength depend on a patient’s age and medical condition, which can only be decided by a healthcare provider.
How to take it?
Taking Norvasc depends on the medical condition and the dosage form. If the tablet form is prescribed, take it by mouth with water; if it is prescribed in a powder form, it should be used after making its suspension, as mentioned on the leaflet along with the medication. It is also widely prescribed as a mouth wash and lozenges used as per the instructions given.
