Vaccine For Rabies Duration

Although rabies is a 100% fatal disease, it is preventable by vaccines. Human rabies vaccine can protect the infected persons by triggering your immune system to produce antibodies. These special proteins can recognize foreign invaders, like viruses, and destroy them.

The first rabies vaccine should be shot in time after being bitten to play a preventive role. If it is a generally minor bite, that is, in the absence of blood, or if it is scratched, or the broken skin is licked, the vaccine should be given on the same day. And it's not just one injection, it usually takes about weeks (PEP procedure: D 0, 3, 7, 14, 28). Note that the dosage for children is the same. Second, for more serious bites

During the vaccination period, you must pay attention to rest, keep in a light diet, do not drink alcohol, and do not exercise vigorously.
Rabies vaccine is also a relatively safe vaccine. Regardless of adults or children, the incidence of adverse reactions after rabies vaccine injection is extremely low, and basically no fatal side effects are caused. The vast majority of people will not experience any reaction after being vaccinated against rabies, and only some of the vaccinated individuals may experience mild vaccination reactions. Common local injections include redness, swelling, pain, itching, and systemic symptoms such as fever, dizziness, headache, fatigue, general malaise, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, etc. Most of these symptoms are relatively mild and can gradually releases within a few days to a week. A small number of patients will have moderate or higher fever and rash, and appropriate symptomatic treatment can be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.
