[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here with a question, hoping someone might be able to weigh in. My Dad has been on IV antibiotics for 7 days in hospital and now augmentin at home on hospice for 3 days. He has a terribly sore throat. It looks like strep but i can't imagine he'd have strep while on all those antibiotics. He does not have a fever. Could it be thrush? If so, does anyone have any advice on how to treat thrush, reduce the discomfort etc? THANKS![/quote] Thrush is a not uncommon side effect of antibiotics, so that would be my guess. Prescription meds/rinse.[/quote]
