Dear sir/ madam, I received 1st rabies vaccine at my triceps muscle instead of deltoid. When I looked at mirror, the site look like border of deltoid and tricep. I am worried it is as effective as in deltoid. Tomorrow is date for 2nd vaccine. please advice.

The vaccine is effective as it has entered the body irrespective of deltoid or triceps area which does not matter.
