Stanford Mouthwash For Oral Thrush (Top voted first)

Is Stanford Mouthwash recommended for the treatment of oral thrush when they are allergic to Tetracyclene?

The thrush is a result of 1 week of broad spectrum antibiotic use for sepsis.

What is the best remedy for this?

REPORT

Tetracycline wouldn't be effective at treating thrush, since it another antibiotic, it could cause it just like the other, or make it worse.

And as to the Stanford Mouthwash, I am afraid that I can't really say, without knowing the exact ingredients. These products are regional and usually contain a blend of ingredients, the pharmacy knows what to put in it, when your doctor orders it, but there is no set ingredient list.

The best remedy for oral thrush is an antifungal medication.

What has your doctor recommended?

The reason I posted (for my daughter) is that all the internet sites that had the ingrediant list for "Stanford Mouthwash" listed both Tetracyclene and Nystatin along with 3 other drugs.

I have since found out that pharmacies are compounding their own versions of "Stanford Mouthwash" and hers does not have Tetracyclene in it.

The doctor does not know exactly what is causing the ulcerative sores in her mouth - thinking it may be thrush and/or herpes. They have not cultured the sores to get a definitive answer - but, her mouth seems to be getting better.
