Is this the correct oral thrush medication?
Hello, Since I have not seen you and don't have the full history, I will answer to the best of my knowledge. I think you should take both medications as was given; since your thrush didn't heal, there is a possibility of systemic disease, some types of infection, so the antibiotic should cover it and the NYstan is for the thrush. If you also use baking soda to clean your mouth, it helps. I hope I was of some help. Thank you, Dr. Nazafatriin Rafieyan READ MORE
