Question 1

best thing for thrush on tounge when taking inhaler with steroids and prescription not getting rid of it and what else besides let my doctoe know because i did that?

: Thrush (oral candidiasis) is easily treated, but preventing the recurrence is harder. The prophylactic treatment is rinsing your mouth after taking the inhaler.  Are you sure you have thrush or you have a white tongue, a different condition?  What prescribed medication have you used for thrush if you truly have it?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Steroid inhalers can produce thrush or thrush like symptoms.

Question 3

when i use a steroid inhaler i always get very bad  thrush it does not matter how well i rinse. is there any to prevent this?

Accepted Answer

Generally, Yes: You need to let your physcian or dentist know about this.  They can prescribe either a mouth rinse or pills that can help prevent or reduce the symptoms of thrush.  Thrush is known as candidiasis and is caused by an organism that we all have in our intestinal tract to aid in digestion.  Many medications can cause Candida Albicans to get out of balance and the medications help set things right.

Precription for UTI: Monistat 1-Day, available from Amazon, is an effective treatment for Vaginal thrush.
