Frequently Asked Questions for Nystan Drop
Oral thrush typically presents as creamy white, raised lesions on the tongue, inner cheeks, and roof of the mouth. It can also cause redness, soreness, and difficulty swallowing. The condition is more common in infants, older adults, and individuals with weakened immune systems.
Nystatin is available in various forms, including oral suspension, tablets, and lozenges. When used for oral thrush, Nystatin is usually prescribed as an oral suspension. The medication works by directly targeting the Candida fungus, disrupting its cell membrane and preventing its growth and reproduction.
Treatment with Nystatin oral suspension typically involves swishing the liquid around the mouth and then swallowing it. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and duration of treatment as directed by a healthcare professional. If symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
