Chickenpox during pregnancy

2025-01-24 13:33:44
My cousin is 8 Months pregnant. She is recently infected with chickenpox but not taking any medication. When I was infected with Mumps during my pregnancy my gynecologist advised me to use Dolo650. Kindly advise if she can also use the same medicine or any other medicines.

The Chickenpox virus and Mumps virus are different. Dolo is given only for fever. Your cousin can also have it. We don't give any antiviral drugs during pregnancy.
