Nystatin is an antifungal drug used to treat fungal infections caused by Candida species. It is commonly used to treat infections of the mouth, throat, and skin, as well as vaginal yeast infections. Nystatin is a polyene antifungal drug, which works by binding to sterols in the cell membrane of the fungus, causing the cell to become leaky and eventually die. It is available in both oral and topical forms, and is generally well tolerated with few side effects. Nystatin is a key component of the infectious diseases drugs market, as it is used to treat a wide range of fungal infections. It is often used in combination with other antifungal drugs, such as amphotericin B, to increase the effectiveness of treatment. Nystatin is also used in combination with antibiotics to treat mixed infections caused by both bacteria and fungi. Some companies in the Nystatin market include Pfizer, Merck, Novartis, and Mylan.
