How Can Persistent Oral Thrush Be Treated Despite Taking Nystatin Suspension, Diflucan And Clotrimazole Troches?
I have had oral thrush for 10 mon and have been using Nystatin swish and swallow, chlortrimazole troches and several rounds of diflucan without total clearing. Am considering gentian violet and have seen clear gentian violet mentioned on a couple of web sites. Is there such a thing? If so, any idea where I can get it?

Hello maam!
I do not know about gential violet stain but I definitely have a treatment here for you that will work for sure!
- Tab. Fluconazole 100 mg (thrice in a week, EOD; Every Alternate Day) for 14 days
- Nystatin mouthwash- you can continue using your Nystatin swish and swallow- every day for 14 days
- Clotrimazole Lozenges.
- Rabeprazole 20 mg B/F in the morning for 7 days.
