Could Nystatin have been prescribed too quickly and now I have tongue mycosis because of it?
Could Nystatin have been prescribed too quickly and now I have tongue mycosis because of it? The doctor did not check my mouth thoroughly. I reported the change under the tongue, she didn't look at it carefully and only assigned Nystatin, I'm afraid that because of it I now have a white tongue and a terrible dry mouth, is it possible that now the fungus has become resistant to it because I was taking nystatin unnecessarily? Doesn't Nystatin harm a healthy mouth? I don't know what to do.

Nystatin is an antifungal drug used to treat fungal infections, including oral ringworm, and is very often effective. If your doctor prescribed Nystatin based on the symptoms you reported at your appointment, you probably had grounds to suspect oral mycosis. White coating on the tongue and dryness may rather be caused by excessive multiplication of Candida yeast, i.e. Nystatin was not effective. In this case, it is important that you consult your doctor to assess the symptoms observed. Always tell your doctor about any symptoms that are of concern during treatment. I enclose materials that may be interesting and information about the possibility of using teleconsultation: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/grzybica-jamy-ustnej
I will add that I did not have a white coating and dryness in my mouth before. I'm afraid I took Nystatin unnecessarily and now I'm going to have problems. What if Nystatin caused it? Can it be cured? I've lost my appetite and I still want to drink.
