Oral thrush is a yeast infection in the mouth and throat caused by Candida. Oral thrush often occurs in babies and adults who wear dentures.
Antibiotics, asthma inhalers, or chemotherapy can also increase the risk of getting oral thrush.
Some things you can do to prevent the infection include:
Oral thrush is typically treated with antifungal medicine, such as Daktarin Oral Gel, which is available in smaller doses over-the-counter or in larger doses on prescription.
Darkatrin Oral Gel is an effective antifungal medicine to treat oral thrush. It contains the active ingredients Miconazole, which kills fungi and yeast by causing holes to appear in their cell membranes. This destroys the fungal cells and helps clear up the infection.
Daktarin Oral Gel 80g is the larger dose version of Daktarin Oral Gel, which is available on prescription in the UK from licensed pharmacies.
The effects of the oral gel should be noticeable within 24 hours of taking it. It can take up to one week after the symptoms appear for them to disappear completely. There is a risk of developing oral thrush again if you stop using daktarin before the course of your treatment is complete.
Daktarin Oral Gel is suitable for most adults suffering from oral thrush. It may not be suitable if you:
During your online consultation, please tell one of our pharmacists if you:
Apply to the affected area four times a day after meals, spacing doses evenly throughout the day.
You should continue using Daktarin Oral Gel for 7 days after thrush symptoms have disappeared.
If you wear dentures, remove them before applying the gel.
If you miss a dose, wait until your next dose is due to apply and continue treatment as advised by your pharmacist.
Daktarin Oral Gel should always be taken exactly as you’ve been advised by your pharmacist. Always read the patient information leaflet thoroughly before taking any medication.
You can buy Daktarin Oral Gel online on prescription from our online thrush clinic. Fill out a quick online consultation; our pharmacists will check it, and once your order is approved, your prescription will be delivered directly to your door.
For an over-the-counter solution for oral thrush that doesn’t require a prescription, you can also buy Daktarin Oral Gel 15g from our pharmacy.
Like all medications, Daktarin Gel can cause side effects; however, not everyone gets them. If you develop any irritation or sensitivity, you should stop treatment and contact your GP or pharmacist.
Should you encounter any severe or unusual side effects from using Daktarin, seek immediate medical attention.
