Description:
Nystatin oral suspension is a liquid antifungal medication commonly prescribed for oral thrush (oropharyngeal candidiasis). It works by binding to the fungal cell membrane of Candida, causing it to leak and die. The suspension is typically swished around the mouth and then swallowed (or sometimes spit out), allowing the medication to directly coat the affected areas.
It is usually given four times daily for 7–14 days, and patients are advised to avoid eating or drinking for about 30 minutes afterward so the medicine can stay in contact with the oral surfaces. Nystatin is generally well tolerated, with mild side effects such as nausea, stomach upset, or a temporary unpleasant taste.
