What to take when you have thrush?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on site: Yeast infection (thrush) treatment depends on the site, i.e. oral, genital, or elsewhere. In general, the most effective treatments are the "azole" drugs (miconazole, clotrimazole, fluconazole, etc) -- either in creams or suppositories or by mouth. If you have been diagnosed with a yeast infection, ask the doctor. Self diagnosis isn't reliable; if you haven't seen a doc, don't treat yourself.
