Can thrush kill you? 1 Year, 5 Months ago

This is my answer to "Amoross"
Q: Can thrush kill you?
A: Thrush will NOT kill you, however if it takes over your body it can make you feel miserable.
Further more, Can thrush be prevented?
There is no way to prevent exposure to candida. Medications are not normally used to prevent candidiasis. There are several reasons for this:
1. The infection is not very dangerous.
2. There are effective drugs to treat it.
3. The yeast could develop resistance to the medications.
Strengthening your immune system is by far the best way to prevent an outbreak of candidiasis.

I want to add this to my comment yesterday (though I took it for granted that you, a part from having thrush, are in good shape),
I should have been more clear.
Like told on this homepage:
Candidaisis CAN be life threatening on rare occasions, in the form of a systemic infection. This is VERY rare and tends to only happen in people whose immune system is compromised, such as AIDS patients or cancer patients.
