Not a good idea, as the immune-suppressing activity of triamcinolone may delay healing of the infection.
Using a steroid like triamcinolone on a cold sore or fever blister may make it worse. Steroids suppress the immune system.
Don't do it! That's likely to make the blisters worse.
Yes
No, nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide can not be used on bee stings. When combined nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide are used to treat fungal and yeast infections. Triamcinolone acetonide by itself can be used for bee stings.
Nystatin and triamcinolone are topical creams used to treat skin infections caused by fungus or yeast. Nystatin is an antibiotic that prevents fungus from growing on your skin, while triamcinolone is a steroid that reduces the actions of chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, redness, and swelling.
Nystatin is an antifungal medication. Oral nystatin is used to treat yeast infections of the mouth. Nystatin may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.
It's used for sores or blisters in the mouth
Recently while treating a yeast infection with nystatin and triamcinolone, I noticed that a hemerrhoid I had been suffering with for years had almost conpletely gone away after just a few days. The oitment may not be prescribed for hemorrhiods, but it worked for me.
Triamcinolone (Triamcinolone acetonide) won't do any harm, and may help relieve the redness, swelling, and itching -- but it's a steroid, not a fungicide, so it won't do anything to the fungus itself. There is an ointment called Mycolog-II that combines triamcinolone with the antifungal, Nystatin, that evidently works better than Nystatin alone in the treatment of candidiasis. Remember that Triamcinolone acetonide is absorbed through the skin, and has systemic effects -- so it should not be used over a large area or for prolonged periods.
Nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide cream are not both needed for shingles, especially since nystatin is for yeast infections. Triamcinolone acetonide can be used successfully to treat rashes and psoriasis.
Nystatin and triamcinolone are creams that are used to treat fungal skin infections. Uneven heartbeats, headache, vision problems, increased thirst or urination, extreme tiredness, weight loss, rash, swelling or itching of face or mouth, and trouble breathing are possible side effects that should be reported to your doctor.
Ciprofloxacin is not used to treat a fever blister.

Nystatin is for fungal infections, and triamcinolone is for a variety of skin conditions that can cause itchy irritated skin such as eczema. Neither of these can cure herpes, because herpes is a virus. In fact, steroids like triamcinolone should not be used on viral infections like herpes or chicken pox because they reduce your immune system and can make the infection spread. There are creams that can be used for herpes, and these are antiviral creams. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
Reccently I used just plain nystatin on my hemorrhoids out of pure desperation for pain, itch relief (it was prescribed for yeast infection on my skin). It worked instantly. I could have cried because I felt so much better in 5 seconds.
