A member asked:

What is the dose of nystatin tablets for a flucanazole resistant oral thrush, esophageal and intestinal candidiasis for an adult? and for how long should be taken?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Call a doctor : Nystatin is available by prescription only. Need to speak with a doctor to get. Candida resistance to fluconazole is extremely rare and very unlikely. May be another condition entirely.

I developed oral thrush during a COVID-19 infection, was on clotrimazole, then nystatin, now fluconazole, 200mg once then 100mg/day- started to clear up at first but after a week growing back. Dr says to continue another week, could it be dying off?

Repeated oral thrush without being on antibiotics. Treatments with diflucan (fluconazole) and nystatin oral didn't help. Have MS and use flonase. Thank you.
