CVS said this was on back order and didn't know when it would be available.

All other pharmacies I contacted said the same.

Anyone else had this problem?

For those who can't find nystatin, you might consider Olive Leaf Extract (OLE).

I found OLE to work much better for me than any of the Rx antifungals, but only either of these two brands:
