There is no known cure for chickenpox. A vaccine was invented in 1974 to prevent chickenpox, and medications were invented in the late 20th century to treat chickenpox and other viruses in the herpesvirus family. However, chickenpox is a virus that remains in your body for life and can cause shingles later. There is no viral "cure" that eliminates the virus, although your immune system clears chickenpox disease within one or two weeks.
