Why not try Canesten Duo Pack - one tablet and a little topical cream. |

Nystatin belongs to a class of anti-fungals referred to as azoles. While Nystatin is only available as a prescription in the USA (OTC in Canada), other antifungals are available OTC, and should work as well as Nystatin. http://www.fetal-exposure.org/ANTIFUNGAL.html The most common ones used for Thrush include Clotrimazole (Canesten is one brand) and Miconazole. This is available in both ointment as well as vaginal pessary forms (for vaginal thrush or candidiasis) These are relatively cheap. Drugstore has it for around $8.00 http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=150917&catid=652&trx=PLST-0-SEARCH&trxp1=652&trxp2=150917&trxp3=1&trxp4=0&btrx=BUY-PLST-0-SEARCH If however you still end up needing a prescription I recommend you call your doctor's office. For the record, Nystatin is not approved for systemic use, i.e. it is not available in tablet form (only lozenges or ointments). Other treatments for oral thrush include Oral fluconazole (for which you will need a prescription) Good luck. |
