Hello,
To put your mind at ease, the Rabies Vaccine (Rabipur) is NOT contraindicated in pregnancy and studies have shown NO effects on either the mother or the baby. It will NOT increase the risk for miscarriages, premature births, or fetal birth defects. I do hope this answers your question. Please feel free to allow me to address any other concerns you may have.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. David Girardi, Internal Medicine Specialist
