you should do whatever your doctor or physician prescribes

Safe? - yes, probably. Effective? - I doubt it.
If it is a simple case not in the hair of the scalp you can use over the counter antifungals marketed for athlete's foot and "jock itch" such as Tinactin.
If it is in the hair you will need an oral medication that is only available by prescription. If it is not resolved after two weeks or is getting worse then you should see your doctor.
