Hi,
For chicken pox Dose of aciclovir (Herpikind) is 800mg 5 times a day. It should be started within 24 hrs.
Youy also use topical aciclovir and antiseptic cream to prevent any secondary infection.
If there is pain and itching..needs to be managed symptomatically.
Feel free to consult if you have any queries.
Hope you get well soon.
Best wishes.
