Flonase caused thrush antifungals safe?
So I take Flonase to control terrible post nasal drip that makes me gag.. I’ve noticed the back of my throat feel weird. I looked today and I have a white tongue and bumps in the back of my throat.. oral thrush is a side effect of Flonase .. And it’s pretty spot on in pictures and descriptions of what I’m experiencing.. can antifungal drugs cause a relapse? Or anyone know of a natural cure? I thought maybe I was just irritating my throat by coughing so much but that’s sadly not the case .. any tips are helpful as I’m nervous about any meds and don’t know much about this

Roy does it really? I have horrible allergies and live in the agriculture center of the United States, so this time of year is pretty bad for sinuses. I’ve never heard that Flonase can cause stomach issues.

I didn’t see that on the list no... the question though is does anyone know about the meds they give you to treat it.. I’ve heard it can cause a reoccurrence if I’m not already going through that.. couldn’t sleep but am
Calling the dr when I get more than two hours when the nurses get there after noon .. but now I need to call for this and I’m not going to and try natural if it can cause the slightest issue

No I don’t know about the meds to treat thrush. I developed thrush from Flagyl and was given some type of liquid medicine for it. I don’t know what it was, but it did help the thrush and didn’t cause a relapse for me. But that doesn’t mean that it can’t. You’d be better off asking your doctor or a pharmacist about that.

I was taking Flonase for few years, and I was told it was the cause of my Scleritis, which is a very serious inflammation in eye and it is very painful.
I have been taking Allegra D instead for runny nose since.. I would never take Flonase again. It has steroid and long term use of steroid causes Scleritis in the eye

Re: Flonase caused thrush antifungals safe?
Flonase did not agree with me. But, to answer your question, my mom took Diflucan for oral thrush and another time Nystatin. The Nystatin can be a liquid that you swish and swallow or swish and spit. If it is in the back of your throat, then you probably have to swallow. It did not give her any problems post c difficile. I have taken Nystatin tablets myself with no issues. Nystatin is milder than Diflucan. They even give it to children.
