Hi & Welcome.
Thanks for approaching us for your concerns.
I've gone through your query.
These medications should not be taken together.

To ensure an adequate absorption from the intestines, you should always take Armour Thyroid on an empty stomach, 30 minutes to one hour before breakfast.

As far as Nystatin is concerned, place half of the dose in one side of the mouth. Swish it around the mouth, gargle, and swallow or spit out as directed. Keep the liquid in your mouth for as long as possible. Then repeat with the remaining half of the dose in the other side of the mouth. Avoid eating for 5-10 minutes after using this medication.

You should not take Nystatin within four to five hours of taking Armour Thyroid.

Hope I could answer your query.
A feed back is appreciated.
