After over 15 yrs of suffering from Rosacea, which has only progressed, I've tried so many different topical creams, gels and oral antibiotics prescribed by my specialist... none solved the problem. I read an article online from a man who professed to have cured his Rosacea with the nystatin/triamcinolone cream. I happened to have some, so I felt like I had nothing to lose by trying it. Overnight, the numerous pustules on my forehead and face cleared up and I was able to go without concealer for the first time in years. It was Christmas Day... what a gift!

Ack! Please don't do that! Those are likely to make things worse instead of better. Talk with your health care provider about effective treatments.

Can Nystatin and Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment be used on dogs?

Nystatin and Triamcinolone OintmentNot sure about the triamcinolone stuff, but the Nystatin can come in different forms. I have used both the liquid which was for my daughters thrush when she was an infant and the ointment which is for yeast infection which I used for my other daughters diaper rash. I don't think these products are just for little ones exclusively. Additional Info: This is an anti-fungal and steriod ointment. My ENT doctor prescribed this cream (Nystatin & Triamcinolone Acetonide cream) for my ear aches. I would get VERY painful ear aches, with swelling and tenderness accompanying the pain. Along with the pain was also some discharge of fluid sometimes. I would get these earaches quite alot, sometimes 4 times a year or more. I was not a swimmer, I was never submerged underwater, so I do not know what caused these ear problems. But my ENT doctor gave me this cream, told me to put it on a Q-tip and gently and carefully put it into my ear canal, and it worked great. It cleared up my earache quickly--no more pain, swelling, or tenderness. After the ear cleared up, the ENT doc told me to do a daily routine of alcohol + white vinegar mixture in both my ears daily. He recommended a mixture ratio of isopropyl alcohol to white vinegar of about 50:1 (the doc told me to use the 91% iso. alcohol, but I am sure you can use the lower percentages too). So in a small bottle (I use a ten ounce bottle) I just put a few drops of white vinegar (no more than a capful) and mix it with the alcohol, shake it up, and you have your solution to use daily to maintain a clean healthy ear canal. Please check with your own doctor before you use this type of solution on your own.I have also found out that this Nystatin ointment is used for yeast infections and to treat for Cutaneous candidiasis. This was from drugs.com, here is the link:http://www.drugs.com/ppa/nystatin-triamcinolone-acetonide.HTMLThe combination of Nystatin plus the Triamcinolone seems to work better together than Nystatin alone, especially for dermatological treatments.Interesting note: according to the above link, the Nystatin ointment is not recommeded for otic (ear) use. I guess my doctor (he is an Ear, Nose, and Throat Specialist) knows more than the people at drugs.com. However, I would not recommend that anybody use this stuff in their ear unless they go to their own ENT doctor to find out what the ENT specialist says.

Can triamcinolone acetonide treat poison ivy?

I was prescribed triamcinolone acetonide for my poison ivy, so I'm guessing the consensus in the medical field is that it does work. I am very allergic to poison ivy, and after 6 days, the rash has diminished but not disappeared. The intensity of the redness has lessened 4-5 shades, and it does not itch near as often, nor as badly. In my opinion, and apparently in my doctors opinion, it does work. It is a topical steriod, and steroids are often the prescription givin for poison ivy infection.
