Calamine lotion and anti histamine tablets both really help the itching.

Appears Royale's recommendation is spot on (sorry for the pun). Treatment

Acicolovier (sp) (Valtrex) used to decrease the effects of herpes, and chichen pox is a form of herpes... so you may want to look into that.

My wife had to use it when she got shingles.
