Question 1

how long does  nystaform hc cream take to work?

Accepted Answer

2-3 days: If no improvement is noticed in 3 days, please see your doctor for a reevaluation. Feel better

Question 2

hi there can nystaform be used for 14 days in men with thrush?

Accepted Answer

Need more info: If nystatin has not gotten rid of your problem then you need to have your physician take a second look as to why you are not cured. Maybe your problem is not thrush or you need a different drug.

Question 3

can you use nystaform hc cream  more than 7 days  & where do u apply it to the penis?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Balanitis is due to tiny amounts of urine fermenting under the foreskin. Circumcision is easy, quick, and cures it. Keeping urine out of this space prevents it. Gently wash out with water. Blot with paper after passing urine. Retract the skin back at least once a day. If you cannot retract it you should get a circumcision. Colorless Castellani solution is by far the best treatment.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Strange: check with another doc.

Second opinion is always a good option.

Good luck.

Question 5

does nystatin treat ringworm?

Not a good choice: Other anti fungal agent, e.g., lotrimin, (clotrimazole) is more effective against ringworm

Question 6

do nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide treat vulvitis?

Accepted Answer

Fungal types: This medication is an antifungal and anti-inflammatory cream used to treat fungal type of vulvitis. In other words, to treat the yeast on the skin of the vulva. Many times this is used in conjunction with a vaginal yeast medication if yeast are both places.

Question 7

will nystatin oral tablet cure a vaginal yeast infection?

Accepted Answer

Yes : It is an antifungal although not often used for this. Over the counter creams will work too.

Question 8

can i use nystatin cream for pityrosporum folliculitis?

Accepted Answer

No, but...: I do not believe Nystatin works on pityrosporum, but ketoconazole and selenium sulfide do!. Try otc Nizoral ad shampoo or selsun blue shampoo and lather it up on the affected areas x 5 minutes daily and wash it off in the shower. Do this for 2 weeks and see if you had success!

Question 9

does nystatin and triamcinone acetonide cream treat vaginal yeast infection?

Accepted Answer

Yes and no: Nystatin is effective against vaginal yeast infections, but triamcinolone cream is not. It tends to relieve the itchy inflammation that goes along with the yeast vaginitis, however. Do not use it alone as it aggravates the yeast infection when used alone.

Question 10

thoughts? could nystatin or vagisil treat ringworm?

Accepted Answer

No: "ringworm" is an infection caused by a group of fungi called dermatophytes.  Nystatin is useful in treating another type of fungal infection caused by yeast (candida) but is not effective against dermatophytes.  Vagisil is an otc product that does not have antifungal properties.
