Tongue Thrush
can lescol ( Fluvastatin) cause thrush or a white tongue?
I have had thrush for a month and been taking nystatin for it. It started getting better. I have a week ago stopped taking my lescol for high cholesterol because i think it may be why i got the white tongue. Am still on my nystatin and started to take my lescol again a few days ago and my tongue is beginning to burn again. I have tried looking for side effects of lescol but have not found one that has to do with thrush... Anyone ever have that problem?

- I'm not aware of that as a common or even uncommon side effect of fluvastatin. If you've had the thrush confirmed as that then it's probably what it is and I have really no useful ideas, but I know that some allergic reactions to medications can present as a thrush-looking rash on the inside of the mouth. This might be more likely if it's only one side of your mouth or tongue as opposed to covering it.
