Guest guest Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 My 2 1/2 year old son has been on Nystatin for a month and a half and have seen no side effects from it. He takes 1/2 tsp twice a day. Elaine > > > > We just started Nystatin, saw no die off on day 1.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 He probably is not tolerating nystatin. Or he has a stomach virus. May be take him off for few days and then try on a weekend and see how he reacts. Good luck is > > > > We just started Nystatin, saw no die off on day 1.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 We did not have die off like this from Nystatin, but we did have it when we started the Specific Carbohydrate Diet which causes bacterial and fungal die off. The child who reacted this way started with hyperactive behavior, then got highly irritable and emotional, then vomited three separate times all in the course of a day. He had no other signs of illness and it had passed by the next day. Cathy > > > > We just started Nystatin, saw no die off on day 1.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Thanks for all your responses....Day 3 (yesterday) I stayed off nystatin..no throwing up. Day 4 (today, no nystatin again) In the morning my son threw up again and had diarrhea. All your responses make me think that throwing up can occur during the die off phase...what about diarrhea? Did anyone experience that? Just trying to figure our that by sheer coincidence is this a stomach virus? or the nystatin! Thanks again.
