What is Mycolog-Ii
NystatinThe Generic name of this drug
Treatment SummaryNystatin is a powerful antifungal drug used to treat infections caused by certain types of yeast and fungi, particularly Candida species. It is made from a strain of Streptomyces noursei bacteria and is similar to the drug amphotericin B. Nystatin is not suitable for intravenous use because of its toxicity, but it can be taken by mouth or applied topically to treat skin, mucous membrane, and gastrointestinal fungal infections.

Effectiveness
How Mycolog-Ii Affects PatientsNystatin is an antifungal medication used to treat yeast and yeast-like fungus infections. It works by damaging the cell membrane of the fungus, and has very little resistance. Nystatin doesn't work against bacteria, parasites, or viruses, and is only available in topical and oral forms, as it is too toxic to be used systemically.
How Mycolog-Ii works in the bodyNystatin is a drug that works by creating a hole in the membrane of fungal cells. This causes the cells to leak their contents, preventing them from functioning properly. Nystatin is selective for fungal cells because it binds better to the sterol found in their cell walls than it does to cholesterol, which is found in mammalian cells.
When to interrupt dosage
The measure of Mycolog-Ii is contingent upon the diagnosed disorder, including cutaneous candidiasis, Skin candida and corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. The amount additionally varies according to the technique of delivery (e.g. Insert or Insert - Vaginal) depicted in the table below.Condition
