my neighbor was bitten by a dog 15days ago,the dog received complete immunization but the doctor adviced her to have anti rabies vaccine, she have 2 shots of rabipur and 2 more scheduled on june 24 and july 16, and besides the rabipur the doctor advised passive immunization but our veterinarian advised that rabipur is enough as the dog dont have rabies, what she will do?
Welcome to Chat Doctor. I am Chat Doctor. Your doctor was correct and your neighbor might be needed for passive immunization because passive immunization depends on size of wound (That your treating doctor better observed during first visit) and category of Rabies. Complete Raipur course and follow that dog is still live or not. Thanx for query.
