Nystatin oral liquid prevents and relieves symptoms of oral thrush by destroying the fungus responsible for it. It works by making holes in the cell membrane of the fungus, causing the contents to leak out, killing the fungus and treating the infection.
Nystatin Oral Suspension should start to relieve symptoms of oral thrush within the first 2 days of use, particularly if you are struggling with oral irritation caused by it. Typically, it takes a week to treat oral thrush, but you should continue using Nystatin Oral Suspension for 2 days after to ensure all fungus has been killed.
Nystatin is generally a suitable treatment for oral thrush in adults and children.
However, Nystatin is not suitable if you:
The recommended dose of Nystan for adults over 18 is 1ml, and it is typically used four times a day by mouth. Doses should be spaced out equally throughout the day
It’s recommended to apply doses after mealtimes to prevent food or drink from washing out the medicine too soon.
If you miss a dose of Nystan during your treatment, take it as soon as you remember, but avoid double dosing. If it’s close to the time you are due your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule.
This medicine should always be taken exactly as you’ve been advised, check with one of our pharmacists if you’re unsure. Read the patient information leaflet thoroughly before taking any medication.
If your oral thrush symptoms continue or worsen beyond 14 days of treatment, contact a doctor or pharmacist for advice.
