What is Oral Thrush

Oral thrush is an infection in the mouth and/or the upper part of the throat (called the “pharynx”) caused by yeast. People have a number of different yeasts that live on the skin and in different parts of their bodies, and when their immune systems go out of balance due to illness or due to the medications they take, it can cause oral thrush.

Tips for Dealing with Oral Thrush

As with any other medical condition, only your healthcare provider can properly diagnose and treat oral thrush.  These tips are not intended to provide medical advice, so be sure to talk to your healthcare professional about your symptoms and ask if Oravig® is right for you.
