Ooo Thrush

Hi,

I've been dealing with Thrush for approx. the last 4 years. I seem to get it at least 3 times a year...normally it takes 2 doses of meds to get it to clear up. My Drs all think that it's brought on because of the meds that I take ( my mouth is very dry all of the time, a side effect of the meds). I've been using Biotene tooth paste and mouth wash which has seemed to help cut down on the number of times I get it and the severity of it. Biotene is an antibacterial dry mouth toothpaste and mouthwash ( I can buy it at both Target or Walgreens). My Dentist recommended it to me. They also make a couple of other items, gum being one of them. Hope this is helpful to you.
