A member asked:
Can fizzy drinks and asthma inhalers cause recurrent oral thrush especially on hard palate.
7 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
No and Yes: No, fizzy drinks will not lead to thrush. Yes, high doses of inhaled corticosteroids such as Flovent inhaler can lead to thrush especially if the person does not rinse and spit after use. Other reasons for recurrent thrush (fungal) is immune suppression.

Not usually: Take mycelax troche, it is like a candy, let it dissolve on your tongue 3 times a day. This will help.
