First of all, Nystatin is for a fungal infection, and not necessarily for the ulcerations. In order to prevent the occurance of more ulcers, you can use Biotene products, which will be much easier on the mouth. You can also use Rembrant FOR CANKER SORE SUFFERERS. (Rembt has quite a line of toothpastes, so be sure to look for the right one) Stay away from spicy or very acidic foods which may also influence getting ulcers.
