The Nystain cream really worked for me. I’m still using it a year and a half later. Once or twice a week and it basically keep it’s at bay. Handy that you found some where in the UK that stocks it! The nearest outlet I found was Germany. I might try that place in the UK it’ll be quicker as I’m in Dublin. Shane.
Lucky you found that tube!!
Hey Matthew,
I did try Brentan, but it didn’t work as well as I had hoped. If I recall correctly my doctor recommended it as an alternative to nystatin, since he couldn’t prescribe nystatin to me and I would have to go see a dermatologist every time. But now he has received the certification, or whatever, that he needs in order to prescribe nystatin, so I started using that again. For me that seems to be the best option 
Hey Shane,
It is a German site but it ships to the UK so it still will have to deliver from Germany unfortunately, I just couldnt find any other sites that allowed shipment to the UK.
The miconazole cream dried my skin out ridiculous amounts and ended up making the situation worse so I’m looking forward to receiving the Nystatin and see if it works.
received my nystatin cream yesterday and tried it for the first time and the cream is yellow and very thick? It is a brand called nystaderm, was just wondering if all nystatin creams are this colour and consistency or have i bought the wrong type.
Hi shane
Could you please give me the full name of the nystatin cream. I live close to germany and want to get a tube but saw online there are several kinds of nystatin cream. I hope you can reply. Thanx in advance. Sahila
Mine has a yellow/grey hue, but it is not straight up yellow if you got the cream, then I think you’re good to go. The paste might work as well. I wouldn’t use the gel. That seems like it for oral use.
I hope you’ll see some good results!
Just wanted to pop a quick message on here to say thanks to Joakim for this information, Nystatin has greatly improved my seb derm, its still not gone completely and been using 3 weeks now but it is so much better and i am hoping it will continue to improve. I had used steroids for quite some time so i think that is the reason it is not a quick fix. I also found that Nystatin Acis worked alot better than the Nystaderm, as Nystaderm seemed to cause alot of pimples but Acis does not. Thanks once again for this article as it has brought me alot of relief
I’m happy to hear it, Matthew!
Stay healthy!
I have used Nystatin ointment and i still have around 40 pcs left.
I don’t need them anymore.

Hi all,
Just wanted to report on my results with Nystatin. I have got nystatin acis cream (yellowish color) from the amazon.de and have been using it for 4 weeks now. The results are great, not 100% clear but around 90% I think. The side-effect is that the skin seems to get greasier. It also proved quite effective for the SD in my ears (as opposed to ketoconazole). Thanks Joakim for suggesting this! And Michael, thanks for creating this great sharing place!
I also wanted to ask Joakim and others using Nystatin for a longer period whether they notice any wear off of the effectiveness of the cream with time?
Hi, I read almost all previous comments and you (Joakim) were using Nystatin lederle crème, which was discontinued. Have you changed to Nystatin Acis crème? is it as good as the lederle version? I am thinking of giving it a try. I have SD in my eyebrows and nose. My nose gets so red after using dead sea salt which was working but stopped, same happened with ketoconazole cream. So next would be biom8, which I already ordered and if that fails I will try Nystatin.
I also tend to get red/flaky patches on my face in the usual SD places. It seems the linked Nystatin product on Amazon.de is no longer available. I have been successfully using for quite a few years Dermacombin Creme which also contains 100,000IU of Nystatin. It also contains several other antibacterial and antifungal ingredients and also some cortisone. The thing is it is so effective that after 2-3 applications my skin returns to normal and flare ups are quite rare (say once a month) so I am not too concerned about the cortisone long term. I use the creme very rarely, usually due to its 6 months expiry date I need to throw most of it. Also I have suffered from sweat rash in my arm pits a few years ago, this cream cured it completely and it has not returned ever since.
Just a quick question! Nystatin acis or candio hermal creme? Which one should I choose and what’s the difference?
Thanks beforehand!
Lederle develops acne so acis works better than that. I used lederle for more than 1 year and face is better after i scwitched to acis 8 months ago. I ordered it from amazon.de.
Hi Massimo,
I am on nystatin for more than 2 years now. Started with lederle, after acnes switched to acis. I used it almost everyday at the beginning. The signs of sd appeared immediately if i forgot to use it for more than 3 days at the first months but now i use it weekly and it still works. I think this answers your question.
