What Causes Fungus On Tongue With Dryness In Throat?

I am 80 yrs man in East Delhi.Height 154 cms,Weight 60 kg.
I have fungus on front portion of my tongue for last about 15 days.I feel very bad. I sip water every time but no relief. At night my throat goes dry and very frequently I have to get up and drink water. A chemist suggested to take Fluka-150 (Cipla) to take with water one tablet after every 3 days for 7 deays. Is it safe or please suggest me proper medication in Delhi East. Thanks. My ID is YYYY@YYYY

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having oral thrush giving this problem.
Take Fluka 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.
Take probiotic like Lactobacillus or B.complex, folic acid medicine for few days.
Avoid constipation.
Apply Gention violet lotion on the tongue.
Keep oral hygiene proper.
Ok and take care.
