Brief Answer:
Following substitute drugs....

Detailed Answer:
Hi there,

To my knowledge, Miconazole or Clotrimazole cream are found as OTC (over-the-counter) that can substitute Nystatin Cream. To decide, need to know:
- why you are taking nystatin cream
- symptoms you are having

Doxycycline is an antibiotic, and you need always a prescription to buy antibiotic at your local pharmacy.

Hope it answered to your queries! Let me know if I can assist you further!
