and the medicine ismaking me very ill. it is the swish and swallow stuff and the first dose in the morning I can get down but it is downhill the rest of the day. I gag and dry heave after every dose, and everthing tastes horrible. I am not getting in my protien or liquid and my vitamins are hit and miss. Seems like once the dry heaving starts everything makes me gag, takes a few hours for my stomach to calm down, all I can get down are ice chips. I am at the end of my 7 day medicne and the infection is still here, I have another refill I can call in but I don't think I can last another week of this. Any suggestions to get rid of the taste and the infection??

Call your doctor. There are other anti-yeast medications, like Diflucan, that might be better tolerated.

 I had  it too and was told not to swallow...I took nystatin 3 to 4x a day for ten days....it eventually went away...good luck!!

I didn't even know it was possible to get a yeast infection in your mouth. How in the world did you get that?!

 Its thrush...like what babies get...from the antibiotics in the hospital plus it didn't help that my mouth was so dry from surgery.

i don't think you are suppose to swallow that stuff. I recently had thrush and it says to swish in your mouth and gargle 1 tsp after meals and SPIT!!!!!   I just got my bottle out and have it in front of me. I got something similar to thrush after throwing up  and having ulcers. i got ulcers in my mouth.
