Vaccine Rabies Health Feed

The immunity acquired from the vaccine can last a long time. The longevity of rabies vaccine ranges between 3 to 10 years depending on the booster dose that is given. For example, to prevent rabies, rabies vaccinations are given three times, on the day of the first injection and on day 7 and day 21 after the first injection. For those who have a high exposure of rabies, it is suggested to receive 1 booster dose once a year and every 3 to 5 years

No need to restart vaccination you can continue with the same regimen i.e. You can take last dose on day 28th.

Since rabies is life threatening disease and there no treatment available so there is no absolute contraindications. Post exposure anti rabies vaccine is indicated in pregnancy also.

If bitten again within 3 months of vaccination, then only wound care is needed. Otherwise take 2 booster shots on day 0 and 3 with proper wound care.

In case of dog bite, both the vaccine can be taken simultaneously. Otherwise there should be 2 wks gap between covid and other vaccines.

If there was bleeding (even a drop) at the site of wound/bite, you should take ars (immunoglobulin)-in the wound.
But if there was no bleeding, only ars on days 0,3,7,28 is enough.
Also tt if not taken in 3 months.

Incubation period of Rabies can be any time between 10-90 days. You should have taken ARV immediately after the dog bite. It is now late. Observe the dog. If it has died within 10 days, take ARV immediately. However you can take 2 post exposure vaccinenow. Consult doctor for further advice.

No it will not, vaccine is injected inside your skin, do not worry it will not decrease efficacy but be sure to take all the recommended doses.
