Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
Don't worry you can take the rabies vaccination as scheduled.
Since you have started the course now only so nothing to worry.
In case your bite is severe or by a highy suspicious rabid dog then its advisable to take immunoglobulins.
If you have any further query feel free to ask me
