Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hi , Nystatin is a very gentle medication. You shouldn't worry at all about that. We found a yeast fighting enzyme like Candex or Candida Defense to be very important for my son. What dose of Valtrex will your child be receiving? --penumbra > > Hello, > > We had our 2nd DAN! doctor appointment today with Sophia's doctor.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Thanks for the advice! The doctor was debating if she should start with Nystatin or a stronger antifungal (cannot remember name) but said we will start with nystatin and go onto the strong meds later. I am not sure about the Valtrex dose yet. The pharmacy didn't have liquid in stock, they had to order for pickup on Monday. ;o) > > > > Hello, > > > > We had our 2nd DAN! doctor appointment today with Sophia's doctor.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 My DAN! doc says that he _always_ uses a systemic antifungal like Diflucan or Nizoral along with Valtrex. Personally, I think we saw an increased yeast die off after stating Valtrex with my son because the immune system was able to clobber more yeast once it wasn't as occupied with the viral load. My 42 lbs son is on 500 mg 2 x daily (1000mg) --penumbra > > > > > > Hello, > > > > > > We had our 2nd DAN! doctor appointment today with Sophia's > doctor.
