I was treated with this for strep throat as a child. The doctor applied it in the throat with long Q-tips. the pain was gone immediately and healing was rapid. This product is almost impossible to find. It is best to do a search on the Internet to find a source. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gentian_violet WHAT IS THRUSH? Thrush is the term we use to describe an overgrowth of yeast in a baby's mouth. This yeast, called candida, normally lives within our mouth, intestines, and genital area. It thrives in moist, warm environments. Occasionally this yeast is allowed to overgrow so much it becomes visible as white patches. .http://www.askdrsears.com/html/8/T083100.asp http://www.answers.com/topic/gentian-violet about gentian violet.
