What is nystatin and triamcinolone cream and how does it work?

Nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide is a topical (skin) combination product that pairs two different medicines. Nystatin is a polyene antifungal that kills Candida, the yeast responsible for many skin infections. Triamcinolone acetonide is a medium-potency corticosteroid that calms the inflammation, itching, and redness that come with the infection. It is FDA-approved for treating cutaneous candidiasis (yeast skin infections), and studies have shown the combination provides greater benefit than nystatin alone during the first few days of treatment.

The brand-name versions once sold in the US — Mycolog-II, Mytrex, Myco-Triacet II, and Mycogen II — have all been discontinued, so this product is now available only as a generic. It is applied to the affected skin, typically twice a day, for a limited period. This is not medical advice; always use it exactly as your doctor and the label directions instruct.

Cost without insurance and how to save with a coupon

Because nystatin-triamcinolone is available as a generic, it is already one of the more affordable prescription topicals — but "generic" does not mean every pharmacy charges the same. Cash prices can differ substantially between one store and another in the same town, which is exactly why comparing before you fill is worth the effort.

Rx.com compares real cash prices across more than 60,000 pharmacies so you can see who is cheapest near you. Enter your ZIP above to see today's price, then show the free Rx.com coupon at the pharmacy counter. There is no manufacturer savings card for this discontinued-brand generic, so a cash-price coupon is the practical way to keep the cost down whether or not you have insurance.

Related medications and alternatives

Depending on what your provider is treating, other topical options may come up. If only the antifungal or only the steroid is needed, the two ingredients are also sold separately as nystatin and triamcinolone. Another antifungal-plus-steroid combination is clotrimazole and betamethasone, and ketoconazole is a common stand-alone antifungal.

Each of these works a little differently and is chosen for a specific situation, so the right pick is a conversation for you and your prescriber. Whichever one you are prescribed, you can compare its cash price on Rx.com to find the lowest local option.

Safety and important precautions

Nystatin-triamcinolone has no boxed warning, but it is for external use only — never in the eyes, mouth, or vagina. Because the triamcinolone is absorbed through the skin, prolonged or excessive use (especially over large areas, on the face or skin folds, or under occlusion such as a diaper) can lead to systemic steroid effects like HPA-axis suppression, Cushing's syndrome, high blood sugar, and sugar in the urine; children are at greater risk. Local reactions can include skin thinning, stretch marks, burning, itching, irritation, folliculitis, acne-like eruptions, lightening of the skin, and allergic contact dermatitis.

Treatment is usually limited to about two weeks — reassess with your provider if the rash is not improving. Because the steroid can mask or worsen infections, it should not be used on infected or ulcerated skin without treating the underlying problem, and it is generally not the right choice when a fungal component is only suspected rather than confirmed. Stop using it and contact your provider if irritation or sensitization develops. This information is general and not a substitute for your provider's advice.
