About Candid Mouth Paint

Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will typically resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult the doctor immediately.

Health Queries

For mouth candidiasis (oral thrush), the commonly suggested medicines are clotrimazole mouth paint. If symptoms do not improve within a week, talk to your doctor. Always keep your mouth clean, stay hydrated, and control any underlying issues for faster recovery.

Dr G Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

For oral thrush after antibiotics, you can use Candid Mouth Paint as your doctor advises. Rinse with warm salt water, eat soft or cool foods, avoid hot or spicy meals, and maintain good oral hygiene. If burning or difficulty eating does not improve in a week, see your doctor.

Dr G Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

For a cracked, painful tongue with increased yeast, using antifungal medicines can help. Keep your mouth clean, rinse with warm salt water, stay hydrated, and avoid sugary foods. Since this has lasted 10 years, see a doctor for proper evaluation.

Dr G Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Oral thrush in babies can take 1 to 2 weeks to clear with proper antifungal treatment, but it may return if precautions are not followed. Use Candid Mouth Paint exactly as prescribed, and clean anything the baby puts in their mouth (bottles, pacifiers, nipples) with hot water. Wash your hands before feeding, and if you are breastfeeding, keep your nipples clean. If thrush keeps coming back, talk to your paediatrician.

Dr G Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Candid Mouth Paint is meant for fungal infections in the mouth, not for regular mouth ulcers. For simple ulcers, use a soothing gel like hexidine mouthwash, if needed. If the ulcer is very painful, lasts more than 1 to 2 weeks, or keeps coming back, get it checked by a doctor.
