No anti rabies vaccination required for now. Only wound dressing is necessary. If again exposure happens after 3 months, then you need to take the vaccination again. So be aware take care!

Dear lybrate-user samir, there is no need of repeat rabies vaccine if exposure occurs within 3 months of last dose. You should simply wash the area with soap and running tap water for 10-15 mins. Thank you.

Rabies vaccine kept for more than 6 hours in outside atmosphere ---looses its potency and not good for use.mobilethe vaccine will not cause rabies disease ---but it is not good for use as anti-rabies vaccine.
