I was diagnosed with oral thrush?

For oral thrush, I needed two different types of anti-fungal medicines for my condition. I took Nystatin Oral Suspension, & Fluconazole for this condition. What is the maximum time (how long) should I take the first anti-fungal med for? Before starting a second anti-fungal med? How many weeks should I be taking the Nystatin?

That answer would best come from your treating clinician. Standard treatment time for oral candida or thrush is a 14-day regimen of an oral antifungal rinse.
Depends on the dosage. Answers should be on the prescription bottle. Also can ask your pharmacist or the prescribing doctor
