CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACOKINETICS
Nystatin is not absorbed from intact skin or mucous membrane.
MICROBIOLOGY
Nystatin is an antibiotic which is both fungistatic and fungicidal _in
vitro_against a wide
variety of yeasts and yeast-like fungi, including _Candida albicans,
C. parapsilosis, C._
_tropicalis, C. guilliermondi, C. pseudotropicalis, C. krusei,
Torulopsis glabrata, Tricophyton_

_rubrum, T. mentagrophytes._
Nystatin acts by binding to sterols in the cell membrane of
susceptible species resulting
in a change in membrane permeability and the subsequent leakage of
intracellular
components. On repeated subculturing with increasing concentrations of
nystatin,
_Candida albicans_does not develop resistance to nystatin. Generally,
resistance to
nystatin does not develop during therapy. However, other species of
_Candida_( _C._
_tropicalis, C. guilliermondi, C. krusei, and C. stellatoides_) become
quite resistant on
treatment with nystatin and simultaneously become cross resistant to
amphotericin as
well. This resistance is lost when the antibiotic is removed.
Nystatin exhibits no appreciable activity against bacteria, protozoa,
or viruses.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Nystatin Ointment, USP is indicated in the treatment of cutaneous or
mucocutaneous
mycotic infections caused by _Candidaalbicans_and other susceptible
Candidaspecies.
NYSTATIN OINTMENT, USP IS NOT INDICATED FOR SYSTEMIC, ORAL,
INTRAVAGINAL OR
OPHTHALMIC USE.
