Suggest A Replacement For Nystatin
HI, I have had a yeast infection recently. I used Gyne Lotrimin but it didn't work. I went to the Doctors and was given tercozil. It seemed to ake it better, but I still had the itching on the outside. I went back to the doctor and he gave me fluconazole. The second doctor also gave me a cream for the outside Nystatin with triamcinolone. The nystatin seems to have made it worst. The Fluconazole seemed to take it away almost completely, but the doctor said to keep using the Nystatin until complete recovery was had. I still have the itch on the outside, Please advise the next step.Thank you

Hello,
In my opinion you should stop using this combination of nystatin and triamcinalone.Best is to use FLUCANAZOLE orally 150 mg every week for 6 weeks and ointment CLOTRIMAZOLE locally.
Use it regularly for 6 weeks.
This should eradicate your problem completely.
Rule out diabetes.
Thanks
