Suggest Treatment For Shingles And Fungal Infection

hi doctor. I was diagnosed with the shingles rash a day ago but two days prior the rash was diagnosed as a fungal infection. I was prescribed acyclovir tablets and zovirax cream for the blisters. my question: is the foban ointment good for the blisters as the zovirax tube is quite small as more of the rash/blisters are popping up!
