Oral thrush is a yeast infection in your mouth. An oral anti-yeast medication like Diflucan might help.

My doc prescribes Nystatin, which is an anti-fungal drug. (Thrush is basically a yeast infection in your mouth.) It doesn't taste great, but it works. Also, if you have thrush, avoid yeasty foods, especially bread and beer. If you get thrush on a regular basis, it may be a sign of a compromised immune system, so let your doctor know.
Good luck.

at one time gentian violet was used to treat 'thrush'. visit a physician for treatment. proper oral hygiene is important! in regards to infants - breastfeeding mothers need to treat their nipples, and bottle nipples need to be sanitized thoroughly!

your question should have been, 'What is oral thrush?'

You must go to the doc and they will prescribe you some antibiotics.

You have to get a Rx for that.
