Nystatin tablets are mainly used clinically for gastrointestinal Candida infections, as well as for the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis caused by Candida albicans in gynecology. Since nystatin tablets may cause gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, vomiting, upper abdominal pain, or diarrhea, medication should be discontinued if symptoms become severe, and alternative treatments considered. The drug should not be taken during pregnancy or lactation. As a prescription medication, the dosage, frequency, and duration of treatment must be determined by a physician based on the severity of the condition, individual patient factors, and disease progression.
