Pharmacology: Nystatin (Afunginal) acts by binding to sterols in the cell membrane of the fungus which interferes in the membrane permeability. It exhibits no appreciable activity against bacteria or trichomonads.
Following oral administration, Nystatin (Afunginal) is poorly absorbed with no detectable blood levels when given in the recommended doses. Most of the orally administered Nystatin (Afunginal) is passed unchanged in the stool.
