A member asked:
My 14mo toddler has chicken pox. is it safe to use calamine lotion along with mupirocin (bactroban) on the blisters/spots?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Safe =probably: But I don't like calamine lotion. I find it excessively drying and it stinks so bad I can still remember the smell. There are products like IVY DRY and Gold Bond Intensive care that do well. I would limit the mupiricin to single lesions you think are festering.
