nystatin liquid is used to treat thrush in children Suppafly 03:41, 19 January 2006 (UTC) nystatin have antitumoral effects in animal experiments and in humans

Not sure what the question is, but nystatin's main benefit is that whilst reasonably potent at killing off fungi, it is not significantly orally absorbed. Hence for peri-anal thrush it is used both as a local cream and taken orally to treat areas higher up in the anus David Ruben Talk 14:01, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Is that IUPAC name right? I'm not sure. - Rob

[edit] IUPAC problem

The top half of the Nystatin page is completely bolloxed up in the Firefox browser. It appears as a bunch of gray bars across the whole page, starting to the left off the viewable screen. Seems to be ok on msie, but no intelligent person would use that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.164.200.16 (talk) 15:45, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

I do not know or understand IUPAC notation, so I am unsure if the problem (caused by this edit) is a valid edit or vandalism. In good faith, I have left it but inserted several random line breaks to fix the problem here. However, I also note that I do not know if these breaks may themselves somehow ruin the notation. — CobraWiki ( jabber | stuff ) 06:26, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
