I have been previously vaccinated with rabies vaccine and I have a proof that my rabies antibody titre showed protection level this is many years back, so any other time if I get a dog bite as i'm previously vaccinated I took 0 and 3rd dose rabies vaccine .now after I take 0 and 3rd dose rabies vaccine is it considered enough and does it mean that after I take 0 and 3rd dose anti rabies vaccine for 3 months I need not take vaccine irrespective of dog bite. I'm trying to ask that if I take 0 and 3rd rabies vaccine is it considered complete because i'm previously immunized hence after taking the 2 doses of rabies vaccine am I protected for 3 months irrespective of dog bite and I need not take any dose 3 months post vaccination.

Hello! if you have been vaccinated with full schedule once but your exposure to dogs continues with bites or licks then go for a serum sample test every 2 years. Plus check antibody titre after exposure and do not let it go below 0.5. 2 doses after bite are fine. Next if you have any bite then only go for these measures.
