Nystan Oral Suspension is a widely prescribed antifungal treatment used to manage oral thrush, also known as oral candidiasis. This condition is caused by an overgrowth of Candida albicans, a yeast that naturally lives in the mouth but can multiply excessively under certain conditions such as after antibiotic use, during illness, or with weakened immunity.<\/p>\n
Containing the active ingredient Nystatin, this medicine provides local treatment to the mouth and throat, helping to control and eliminate fungal infections. Nystan is effective for use in adults, children, and infants, making it a versatile choice in primary care and paediatrics.<\/p>\n
Nystatin is a polyene antifungal that works by binding to ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes. This causes the membrane to become porous, leading to leakage of essential components and cell death. Since it works locally in the mouth and is not absorbed into the bloodstream in significant amounts, Nystan is both safe and effective for topical fungal infections in the oral cavity.<\/p>\n
The suspension form coats the inside of the mouth, ensuring that the active ingredient reaches areas where the yeast is growing, including the tongue, cheeks, gums, and roof of the mouth.<\/p>\n
Trusted antifungal treatment with a long-standing safety profile<\/p>\n
Localised action with minimal systemic absorption<\/p>\n
Suitable for all ages, including neonates and the elderly<\/p>\n
Effective symptom relief typically within 2\u20133 days<\/p>\n
Non-invasive, easy-to-administer liquid form<\/p>\n
Pleasantly flavoured suspension for improved compliance<\/p>\n
Nystan is often recommended when oral thrush is linked to antibiotics, inhaled corticosteroids, dentures, or weakened immunity.<\/p>\n
Nystan must be used exactly as prescribed and continued for the full course, even if symptoms resolve earlier. This helps prevent recurrence. It should be held in the mouth for as long as possible before swallowing. Do not rinse the mouth immediately afterward.<\/p>\n
If symptoms do not improve within 7 days or worsen, consult your GP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
