Scientific Evidence:

Nistatin is a well-established antifungal medication with a long history of use in treating various fungal infections. Studies have shown its efficacy in combating Candida infections, making it a first-line treatment in many cases. Research published in the Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy has highlighted the effectiveness of Nistatin in treating oral candidiasis, a common fungal infection in the mouth.

  • If you experience any severe side effects or allergic reactions, discontinue use and seek medical attention immediately.

Pharmacological Effects:

Nistatin works by binding to sterols in the fungal cell membrane, disrupting the membrane integrity and leading to cell death. This mechanism of action makes it highly effective against a wide range of Candida species.

Clinical Trials:

Clinical trials have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of Nistatin in treating fungal infections. A study published in the Journal of Infectious Diseases showed that Nistatin was effective in treating esophageal candidiasis with a high cure rate and minimal side effects.
