@ecinet777 - welcome to Connect. congratulations on your recent liver transplant! When did you receive your transplant? Mine was in 2009 and I honestly don’t remember having difficulty with the medicine that I was prescribed for Thrush that was around 10 years after my transplant. I also don’t remember what I took after my surgery. I think there was an oral swish-in-mouth med. and I don’t remember that either.
I am sorry that I don’t have any experience that might help you. However, I do want to encourage you to contact the doctor (via your transplant nurse coordinator) who prescribed the medicine. It is important for you to take all of your meds as prescribed.
How many more days of the med will you need to take?

Hi @ecinet777 😊
It's great to meet you! Congrats on your brand new liver! Are you still in the hospital or back home now? I am a two year post kidney transplant patient. I remember having a problem with the Nystatin "swish and swirl" immediately after the transplant. At the hospital, I would focus on swallowing all the immune suppression meds, the antibiotic, the anti-viral, and by the time I got to that terrible tasting "swish and swallow" anti-fungal, I was getting nauseous. The first two or three days, I told my hospital nurse that I could swish, but not swallow without gagging. After I left the hospital, it started to gradually become easier. Maybe speak with your nurse to see if you can use a little less for the first couple of days, or some other revision. You definitely want to protect yourself against thrush in your mouth, but I understand what you are going through immediately after surgery. It's tough to "swish and swallow" that taste after taking all those new pills. But it definitely gets easier as the days pass, so hang in! It was a prescription for only 30 days. How long do you have to take it? Again Congratulations on your transplant and post how you are doing! 👍
