Hi...what a pain! I always get diflucan one for my thrush, which costs about �12 for the one tablet but you can get it unbranded which is called fluconazole and that is about �7. You take the one tablet and after a few hours........no more thrush!
However, I have never used this for treating thrush in my mouth, you might want to check with the pharmacist on that one! : ) Hope it clears up!

I would see the doctor if I were you. Oral thrush can get very nasty indeed. I had it really badly once and my doctor gave me some prescription lozenges which cleared it up.

I had a similar thing after taking antibiotics, and I got Daktarin gel from over the counter in Boots. It cleared it up withing a few days.

Dilute some vinegar with boiled water and gargle. Brush your teeth afterwards to protect them from the acid though.
