A new and more potent version of the chickenpox vaccine has won federal approval to prevent shingles, the often excruciatingly painful disease that can strike the elderly when the chickenpox virus emerges after lying dormant for decades. The Food and Drug Administration announced Friday that it had licensed the vaccine, Zostavax, to reduce the risk of shingles in adults 60 and older.
