Nystatin is used primarily to treat fungal infections, especially those caused by Candida species.

Essential insights

  • Binding to Ergosterol: Nystatin binds to ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes.
  • Disruption of Membrane Integrity: By binding to ergosterol, nystatin disrupts the fungal cell membrane, leading to increased permeability and leakage of cellular contents.
  • Fungal Cell Death: This disruption ultimately results in the death of the fungal cells, effectively controlling the infection.
