How can oral thrush be treated despite taking Nystatin suspension?
Patient: I have thrush and have been taking nystatin oral suspension 5 ml 4 times a day. I am on my second dose of the medication and still have thrush. It is better but not gone. I have one more day of the dose. Should I be getting a different medication to clear up the tongue area? Doctor: Hello dear. Welcome to Healthcaremagic. I read your query and I understand your concern. You should finish the medication as prescribed by the doctor.  Use it even the next day then wait for the result.  The most probably it will be cured.  If not ask again  your doctor. Take care. Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help you. Best regards.
