For fungal infections, Candid B cream is usually preferred over dusting powder for its moisturizing and soothing properties. However, Candid dusting powder can be used in certain situations:

1. *Excessive sweating*: Powder can help keep the area dry.
2. *Intertrigo*: Powder can help reduce friction and moisture.

*Alternatives:*

Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before switching or using alternative treatments.
