Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/11/2019 -- Oral thrush is a fungal infection caused by accumulation of Candida albicans on the mucus membrane of the mouth. Candida albicans infects men and women of all age groups. It is the normal inhabitant of oral microbiota in about 50% of the population globally. Candida albicans is normally present in the mouth, but sometimes it can overgrow and become pathogenic to the host's tissue. Oral thrush usually causes the development of a creamy white lesion on the tongue or inner cheeks. Sometimes it may spread to the gums, tonsils, and/or roof of the oral cavity.

In severe cases such as cancer or HIV/AIDS, lesions get worse and spread downward into the esophagus. Several factors such as weakened immunity, diabetes, vaginal yeast infections, and medications may increase the risk of oral thrush infections. Diagnosis of oral thrush depends on the location. If the thrush is limited to the mouth then it can be diagnosed by microscopic examination and blood tests. If oral thrush has spread into the esophagus, then it can be diagnosed with the help of biopsy, endoscopic examination, and/or physical examination. Moreover, oral thrush can be treated with topical anti-infectives such as gentian violet and antifungals such as fluconazole, clotrimazole, etc.
Increasing incidence of candidiasis infections and rising awareness about fungal infections are expected to drive the global oral thrush treatment market during the forecast period. In addition, increasing hygiene awareness in developing countries and popularity of over-the-counter antifungal drugs are also expected to drive the oral thrush treatment market in the near future. However, availability of alternative treatments such digestive health probiotics and occurrence of severe adverse drug reactions may restrain the oral thrush treatment market to some extent. For instance, in August 2013, the U.S. FDA announced that medical professionals should not prescribe ketoconazole tablet as a first line therapy for any fungal infection because of the risk of severe liver injury, adverse drug reactions, and adrenal insufficiency. In July 2013, the European Union withdrew the ketoconazole tablet from the market.
