A member asked:
How long before oral thrush goes with nystatin. its mild and a few white spots. probably caused by asthma inhaler?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few days: It will generally resolve a few days after starting an anti fungal medication. However, the more important issue is how to prevent thrush in the future. With steroid inhalers it is best to rinse your mouth and throat before and after using the inhaler. Most people are only advised to rinse after use of the inhaler.
