thrush diagnosed by doctor ## Mylanta is an over the counter medication used for the treatment of acid reflux, heartburn, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (also known as GERD). I don't know how helpful it might be in regards to treating thrush (a yeast infection of the mucus membrane lining the mouth and tongue), but generally Fluconazole or Itraconazole are the recommended drugs of choice for treating serious fungal or yeast infections, such as candidiasis (thrush, oral thrush).

I found several dark free, circular pills with either a M or W printed on one side. No imprints on the other side. Can you please identify? Thanks. ## Hi concernedmom, Based on the description provided, I've identified your pill as a 240mg Mylanta tablet, containing a combination of aluminum hydroxide + magnesium hydroxide + simethicone. The correct marking is actually an "M" as you first mentioned. Mylanta is an over the counter antacid used for treating symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease; including heartburn, gas, and acid indigestion. And for verification, the manufacturer is reported to be Johnson & Johnson/Merck Pharmaceuticals, who seem to be on some sort of joint venture. I hope this helps!
