Directions

Adults: place 1 ml of suspension in the mouth four times a day. Hold it in contact with the affected areas for as long as possible before swallowing.

FAQ

Veuillez lire notre page FAQ pour en savoir plus.

Should I just swallow it straight away?

For oral thrush, hold the suspension in your mouth for as long as you can before swallowing. The longer it stays in contact with the affected areas, the better it works. Placing half the dose in each side of the mouth helps it reach more of the affected area.

Can I stop taking it once my symptoms clear up?

No. Continue for at least 48 hours after the symptoms have gone to reduce the chance of the infection returning. If your symptoms have not improved or have worsened after 14 days, speak to a clinician.

Will it treat a fungal infection elsewhere in the body?

No. Nystatin oral suspension is for infections of the mouth, throat and gut only. It is not absorbed into the bloodstream in any meaningful amount and will not treat systemic (whole-body) or skin fungal infections.

Does it contain sugar, and does that matter?

Most nystatin suspensions contain sucrose. If you have diabetes or wear dentures, be aware of this and discuss it with our pharmacy team at info@rightangled.com. Denture wearers should also clean and maintain their dentures properly during treatment.
