Mycostatin Oral drops UAE Mycostatin is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal infections of the mouth and throat. It contains the active ingredient nystatin, which works by destroying the fungus's cell wall. This medication is specifically used to treat oral candidiasis, which causes painful white patches in the mouth, tongue, and throat. Mycostatin is effective and safe for use in infants, children, and adults. It is often prescribed for infants who develop fungal infections as a result of breastfeeding or immunodeficiency.
Mycostatin is also used in patients receiving long-term antibiotic or corticosteroid treatment, as these medications increase the risk of oral fungal infections. It is also used in immunocompromised patients, such as cancer patients or those with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
