    Thrush

    Hi

    which is the safest medication to use for vaginal thrush. Breastfeeding a 2 year old.
    a vaginal cream with applicator or Flucandazole 200 mg?

    Thanks

    Nikita Munro,

    Either would be ok with a 2 year old for short term use. The vaginal cream would be absorbed less.

      Thank you

      I have used one Flucandazole 200 mg but it didn't help. For how many days could I continue to take one, before it became unsafe for her? I was thinking of taking one a day for a week or two until my thrush disappears.

      Thanks so much.

        Nikita Munro,

        A couple of weeks is probably ok, monitor your toddler for vomiting and diarrhea.
