I'm dealing with a fungal infection in the area around my penis and have started using some medications. I have a question about the abzorb powder Im using to prevent sweating in that area. Is it alright to apply it over the cream I'm using? Also, can I use the powder separately, and will it really help with the issue?

No,don't use both cream and powder simultaneously because neither will work ,use ointment twice a day and in between you can use powder.
