The last time i was on antibiotics i got thrush will this happen again in the future when given antibiotics?

Oral Thrush: Possibility does exist thus might occur. It may be dependent upon the type of antibiotic used & the duration of treatment. A treatment course of 2-3 weeks would be more likely to cause a problem as opposed to a single dose or 2-3 days but that is not an absolute.
