Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 My nephew who tested negative for yeast, had a few "yeasty" behaviors going on (weepiness, rigidity...)so my sister gave him nystatin. Things improved, then she backed off and his behaviors came back. So she knows he needs this. I've never used nystatin and I don't know much more than it's used for yeast overgrowth. A quick google search shows that it's an antibiotic. Does anyone know about nystatin and it's role on the anitbiotc level? This could be a good indication for her.

Due to its toxicity profile, there are currently no injectable formulations of this drug on the US market.[1] However, nystatin may be safely given orally as well as applied topically due to its minimal absorption through mucocutaneous membranes such as the gut and the skin.[2][3] Like many other antifungals and antibiotics, nystatin is of bacterial origin.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 This is actually when you start going from layman's terms into more clinical terms. Antibiotic means a few things. It doesn't just antibiotic as in kills bacteria. It's also another term for "antimicrobial". In the case of nystatin, it simply means it's killing a micro-organism. It does *not* mean it's killing bacteria. Hope that helps. Cheryl ~http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com~~@Gryffins_Tail~ Yes. Thank you.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Gotcha. Yes...I see what you mean. It could be the one and only function of nystatin is to kill fungal infections (ew that always sounds so gross). The most I can find is "used mostly for the treatment of fungal infections" or "used for fungal infections and other conditions. " But they won't list the other conditions. Maybe a better question for me to ask would've been "Are there any additional benefits to taking Nystatin"? But there's none, so far, that I have found. It could very well be that he does indeed have yeast even if he tested negative. His mood is so parallel to when she has him on and takes him off that at this point, I don't think it's coincidence, you know? She will have to ask her dan if it's safe to continue even w/ a negative lab until he goes back in the spring. In the mean time, I'll fish around.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Tammy - When Maddie had the awful rashes - our DAN suggested I put her on Nystatin. Because I worry about her being in a place when she is growing and developing, keeping pharmas out of her was a concern of mine, simply because I do not understand how they act/react/work with her bodily functions as she is growing, and what are the long term effects if any... I had googled to see if there was something 'like' nystatin, but not nystatin. (HA!) -- and actually, I came up with Syntol. I had actually purchased Syntol for myself, and had it on hand (serendipity!) - I picked up the script for Nystatin, but I never used it. As a last ditch effort, I started giving her the Syntol with Candex (as I have to find the website that said that the two together was better than Nystatin without any side effects.) This was a HUGE for her. Within a week, I had her rashes under control, and she was happy. I gave her really high doses for a week, and then cut back to high doses for the next three weeks, and now she gets one before bed. Knock on wood...she can eat anything--[on the diet]..without ill effect. She used to be 'allergic' to carrots, apples, bananas, corn, tapioca, peas, strawberries, raspberries, potatoes,..and the list goes on and on... **Although, she is gf/cf and mostly corn free (she eats organic popcorn and tortilla chips on occasion -- but I don't let her have anything with 'corn' processed stuff in it, like HFCS, or Corn Syrup, or corn starch) I also maintain a [mostly] low/med oxalate diet, and Feingold elimination, simply because Jimmy is on it.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Testing for yeast is notoriously unreliable. The only time you are guaranteed a right answer is when they say yes, there's yeast. But even then, half the time they are wrong about the extent of it. My son's always came back "some" (I think that was the term, I don't remember) when I knew he had more than just "some." I don't even bother anymore. That's a big reason to know your child's symptoms - you simply can't rely on tests. Cheryl ~http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com~~@Gryffins_Tail~ Gotcha. Yes...I see what you mean.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Forgot to say, it's very much not uncommon to have a negative test and still have yeast. That was supposed to go with the "notoriously unreliable" sentence. Cheryl ~http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com~~@Gryffins_Tail~ Testing for yeast is notoriously unreliable. The only time you are guaranteed a right answer is when they say yes, there's yeast. But even then, half the time they are wrong about the extent of it. My son's always came back "some" (I think that was the term, I don't remember) when I knew he had more than just "some." I don't even bother anymore. That's a big reason to know your child's symptoms - you simply can't rely on tests. Cheryl ~http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com~~@Gryffins_Tail~ Gotcha. Yes...I see what you mean. It could be the one and only function of nystatin is to kill fungal infections (ew that always sounds so gross). The most I can find is "used mostly for the treatment of fungal infections" or "used for fungal infections and other conditions. " But they won't list the other conditions. Maybe a better question for me to ask would've been "Are there any additional benefits to taking Nystatin"? But there's none, so far, that I have found. It could very well be that he does indeed have yeast even if he tested negative. His mood is so parallel to when she has him on and takes him off that at this point, I don't think it's coincidence, you know? She will have to ask her dan if it's safe to continue even w/ a negative lab until he goes back in the spring. In the mean time, I'll fish around. But I tell you, my brain was not wired this stuff : ) -Tammy To: mb12 valtrex Sent: Mon, February 7, 2011 11:13:35 PMSubject: Re: Nystatin This is actually when you start going from layman's terms into more clinical terms.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I read your posts with great interest. I had no idea the stool testsare not the most reliable. When you check for yeast, do you use the OAT test then? My sons pediatrician ran a stoll test, it came back negative, we did a course of Nystatin, the stimming is still as intense as ever and know he wants to put him on Risperdal or Abilify, which I will not do. My son has fought yeast for a long time, but we've only done stool tests. His latest came back negative. We did a course of Nystatin, but his hyperactivity, lack of attention and intense stimming is still here. Is the OAT test done through a urine sample, similar to the OAT test offered through Great Plains Labratory? We have done Nystatin and Diflucan with him before. Is anyone having success using a biomedical approach to treating and controlling yeast? I know there are several supplements to use and appreciate any feedback you all have. Lori > > > > > > Yes.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Syntol w/Candex was similar to Nystatin, but without the side effects. We used it with great success. Do you supplement magnesium (for hyperactivity and focus?) and calcium? We use naturally calm. (Mag only Lemon/Raspberry) This is what took my kid from bouncing off the walls to normal. We also do Feingold/Low Oxalate and gf/cf (we are mostly corn and soy free to, but I do let some slip) ... He is VERY normal (or standard or typical) -- but we found that when we go off the diet or there is an infraction, some of the behaviors come back. (and undesirable things like bed wetting) When we tried these things - the results were quick. Gf/cf took four days to see results, Feingold same, low oxalate like within a day, supplementing with magnesium, less than a day...so it might be something to look into, as the improvements (at least for us) were dramatic. laura > > > > > > > > > > > > Yes.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 If you've used diflucan and still didn't see improvement, I would say the problem is likely something else. Yease will be a battle for most of our kids for a long time but you should have at least seen some improvement with the diflucan, even if it all went back to normal later. Cheryl ~http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com~~@Gryffins_Tail~ I read your posts with great interest. I had no idea the stool testsare not the most reliable. When you check for yeast, do you use the OAT test then? My sons pediatrician ran a stoll test, it came back negative, we did a course of Nystatin, the stimming is still as intense as ever and know he wants to put him on Risperdal or Abilify, which I will not do. My son has fought yeast for a long time, but we've only done stool tests. His latest came back negative. We did a course of Nystatin, but his hyperactivity, lack of attention and intense stimming is still here. Is the OAT test done through a urine sample, similar to the OAT test offered through Great Plains Labratory? We have done Nystatin and Diflucan with him before. Is anyone having success using a biomedical approach to treating and controlling yeast? I know there are several supplements to use and appreciate any feedback you all have. Lori > > > > > > Yes.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Lori- Our previous doctor only did stool test for our son and they always came back negative for yeast. We switched doctor's (actually to Dr. Baptist who I believe Christel recommended in KC) and he ran an OAT test which came back triple the amount of yeast! He also did a three day stool test and the yeast only showed up in one of the days. I was curious about this and Dr. Baptist said that yeast stays together and does not spread out throughout the stool. That is why it only showed up on one day... the other two days I obviously did not get the right spot from the stool. Just thought I'd pass on our experience b/c for two years I thought my son had yeast issues and the doctor kept saying no. Dr. Baptist helped us get his yeast under control. Stimming went way down after that. HTH- beth > > > > > > > > > > > > Yes. Thank you.

Things improved, then she backed off and his behaviors came back. So she knows he needs this. I've never used nystatin and I don't know much more than it's used for yeast overgrowth. A quick google search shows that it's an antibiotic. Does anyone know about nystatin and it's role on the anitbiotc level? This could be a good indication for her.
