How to treat thrush without nystatin?

Vanessa

Hi guys,

Are there any alternative methods to treat thrush other than applying oral nystatin to LO tongue?

He didn’t have any of the symptoms of thrush only the white coating on his tongue. Doc prescribed nystatin but it made his feeding terrible! (He’s also going through or went through a growth spurt). He was feeding like a champ up until we tried the nystatin.

My in law mentioned something she took orally n it transferred through her breastmilk that cleared it right up. I don’t remember what she said it was. Any one of you heard/ has experience with something like this?

I want to stop with the nystatin cuz of the feeding issues and also it makes his poop super bright yellow and oily looking. I’m just afraid of that stuff man
