Comment:
After four days of use, the condition has not improved. Still have the itching, burning and redness. Infection is at the top of inner thighs and it is very hard to keep the area dry after applying medication.

I had a weird itchy rash on my inner thighs for 4 months. I tried every otc out there. It responded to anti fungals but always came back. MD prescribed Nystatin powder. It was a hard place to keep powder on but after 5 days the rash went away and hasnt returned.

I was prescribed this medication along with diflucan. After only applying three times within two days I had blisters everywhere I applied it. I'm now in extreme pain and have to take a steroid pack and rub in lidocaine cream to keep the pain down.

Comment:
I have a reoccurring problem with Candida Yeast infection. My doctor prescribed Nystatin and Triamcinolone Acetonide cream. The rash is burning and painful and the cream helps. I lost some weight and the skin in my abdominal area overlaps and is the cause. I just wish it would go away and stay away.
