Way :
- For use in the oral cavity and to be taken orally.
- For oral thrush, the suspension is dripped into the mouth after meals. It should be moved around in the mouth for as long as possible before being swallowed. This increases the exposure time. For infants, you may want to use a cotton swab to ensure that the entire surface of the oral mucosa is wetted. It is advisable to remove the thrush deposits beforehand, e.g. B. wipe with a swab.
- For intestinal thrush, the suspension is taken before meals.
- The bottle containing the suspension should be shaken vigorously before use.
