Has anyone used Nystatin/ Triamcinolone Ointment for athlete's foot or jock itch? How effective was it?
I've been dealing with athlete's foot for a while now, and my doctor prescribed me Nystatin/triamcinolone Ointment 15gm. I've heard it can be really effective, but I'm also a bit worried about the side effects. Has anyone else used this ointment? How well did it work for you? I'm hoping to get some firsthand experiences and tips on how to use it effectively. Also, any advice on managing the side effects would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I had a friend who got Cushing's syndrome from overusing steroid creams. Definitely talk to your doctor before continuing use.
I wish I had known about the potential for high blood sugar symptoms. I ended up in the ER with weird symptoms.
I've been using it for a few days and I'm not seeing any improvement. Anyone else have this issue?
This stuff is a lifesaver. I've used it several times and it always works. Just be careful not to overuse it.
Be careful with the steroid part. I had some skin thinning after using it for a bit too long.
The itching stopped almost immediately for me. I was happy but I just wanted to share that it did sting a bit at first.
