    High sugar content as person said below sugar feeds candida??? Also your mouth feels horrible after use. also having to take it 4x day for two weeks is just impossible for me with busy lifestyle. I just forget to take it on time. I use natural bio yoghurt several times a day seems to have worked with no side effects.

    My daughter is 6 weeks old. Doc prescribed because of thrush. Has been on it a few weeks now. Seemed to work ok. Some is still there. She's been having trouble sleeping because she seems to be uncomfortable. She did great before starting the medication. My doc recommended VINEGER as an all natural substitute. I am trying that next.

    The sugar in this product has only worsened the thrush on my tongue. I've had this condition once before and the liquid swish and spit did NOT work. Went to an ENT who recommended nystatin powder (no sugar) to put on my tongue. Taste was horrible, but it worked. ENT believes infection is due to birth control pills. Will not use liquid Nystatin again. Sugar feeds yeast so why would it help ... Show Full Comment

    Can't get rid of the oral thrush or yeast but it at least helps.
