Question 1

is it ok to take  nystatin & probitics the same time? would that cause to much die off syptoms? is it true  u can get candida die off ?

Accepted Answer

Yes,they go together: Yes, it is good to take probiotics (I usually recommend
full fat plain yogurt ) together with Nistatin. You may not feel well if too much candida dies off at the same  time and a lot of toxins are released in a short period. The yogurt and other probiotic foods ( or probiotic capsules ,if you do not like food) can be only helpful to soften this die off reaction

Question 2

i have oral thrush & candida skin infection on feet. could take nystatin liquid plus use the powder on feet will that cause to much die off syptoms?

Accepted Answer

No problem...: It is fine to take the oral nystatin and use the topical powder on your feet at the same time.

Question 3

how much time does it take candida to be systematic?

Accepted Answer

I don't believe it: The vast majority of physicians believe that the popular 'systemic candida' claim is an imaginary diagnosis. You'll read about it being managed, but never cured -- this alone tells me that it's a scam. Some seriously immunocompromised people do get a serious systemic candida infection and are gravely and obviously sick from it.Your physician and/or an ethical holist are your best guides.

Question 4

how long does it will take to cure candida if i start taking medicines for it?

Accepted Answer

Candida: Candida clears pretty quickly.   In order to stay rid of it, you may have to remove the cause or trigger of the candida infection, like antibiotics use or too much sugar/ high blood sugar.

Question 5

is it possible to have candida die off reaction from starting new probiotics? have had drunk feeling several weeks. started when i began probiotic.

Accepted Answer

No because:: The concept of Candida overgrowth in the gut causing multiple symptoms is not supported by science and is not a recognized medical illness. Nor is the concept of Candida die off.

Question 6

i think i was exposed to candida auris, how long would it take for symptoms of an infection to show up?

Accepted Answer

: Exposed in what manner? How do you know? If you have a normal immune system -- that is, if you are outwardly healthy with no serious health problems -- there is almost no chance you'll have a problem with C. auris. Serious infections are almost entirely limited to people with serious underlying health problems or immune deficiency.

Question 7

hi ive candida im taking probiotics & i feel very better but only when i take yeast free probiotics does probiotic contain yeast is bad for candida?

Accepted Answer

No: probiotics usually stimulate and supplement GI bacteria to help with digestion.

Question 8

what amount million cfu in probiotics should i take for candida?

Accepted Answer

It depends: ...mostly on where your candida infection is.  Candida is usually treated with an antifungal agent, such as ketoconazole, for example.  Prrobiotics in and of themselves will not treat a Candida infection. I would speak to your primary care or GI doctor. Good luck.

Question 9

my husband and i have candida/yeast infection what medications can we take to clear the infection?

Accepted Answer

Difucan: Ask your doctor for prescription for Diflucan (fluconazole). Be sure the diagnosis is confirmed.

Question 10

which multivitamin brand should i take while on candida diet ..

Accepted Answer

"Candida diet": Although suggested by some alternative medicine practitioners, there is very little evidence to suggest that Candida overgrowth actually occurs. There are no clinical trials that show a candida cleanse diet treats anything. However, stopping sugar and processed foods is probably a good idea anyway. No particular multivitamin is better than the others. Good luck.
