Clinical Pharmacology:

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 47 75 17 candida (c. tropicalis, c. guilliermondi, c. krusei, and c. stellatoides) become quite resistant on treatment with nystatin and simultaneously become cross resistant to ampho
tericin as well. this resistance is lost when the antibiotic is removed. nystatin exhibits no appreciable activity against bacteria, protozoa, or viruses.
