This is probably not the right place to ask and reply. But I am a hospice nurse and have encourntered this problem. There is a "swizzle" mouth rinse that the pharmacist mixes up. It's pink. It's basically the medication for thrush (white dots in a baby mouth). He needs to have his doc call in a prescription for the pink swizzle. If you need more info, PM me.
