Question

I recently saw a doctor for a skin infection and was told it's a fungal infection. They prescribed me Candiforce 200. When I looked it up online, it seems to be more for mouth, throat, and lung issues. I'm a bit confused and worriedwill it actually help with my skin infection? I'm thinking of seeing a dermatologist soon but would love some clarity before that.

I'm currently being treated for tuberculosis and have been on medication for about two months. Initially, I was on Akurit 4 for around 1.5 months, but it gave me really bad joint pain, so my doctor switched me to AKT 3.
