Buy Nystatin oral suspension online
Nystatin oral suspension both treats and prevents thrush infections in the mouth and intestines. If you’re suffering from irritating oral thrush, Nystatin can help to ease your symptoms within just one week of treatment. It is ideal for both adults and children, and can even be used to prevent thrush in newborns.
How Nystatin works
Thrush infections are caused by fungi called Candida, which multiply in certain conditions, leading to an infection. Nystatin is a type of medication known as an antifungal antibiotic, which means it tackles the fungi that cause thrush directly. This helps restore your body’s natural balance of bacteria so it can fight back against thrush infections in the mouth or intestines, relieving your symptoms effectively.
Directions
Shake the bottle well before each use. Measure out the amount of Nystatin solution you will need and hold it in your mouth for as long as possible before swallowing. This will help maximise the amount of time that the medicine is in contact with the affected area. Space doses evenly throughout the day. The dose guidelines recommended by the manufacturer are as follows.
