Gentian Violet

It says if ingested to call poison control and get medical attention. Also says do not inhale. Is it really safe to use for thrush in Babys mouth? Also contains alcohol.

  • You got the 1% right. Just sit baby up and use a baby q-tip to coat his mouth. Then lean him forward and the extra will run out. If it was real dangerous drs wouldn't tell ppl to use it. :)
  • @Aydonsmommy i didn't buy it but was looking at it cause i thought we were getting thrush and i didn't like what it said. Im a first time breast feeding mom but not a first time mom and my son never got thrush but with her i constantly worry about every little thing.
  • I don't blame you im the same way. Aydon is my first and I'm constantly worried ill mess up. But what I told you is exactly what my Dr said to do. And it worked in a week. I also used it on my nipples because I had it as well. But you do what you feel safest doing. Personally I felt the side affects of the prescribed Meds were almost or just as bad. But that's just me.
  • O and apply twice a day.
