hi
the treatment given by your doctor is as per the standard guidelines and a very exact treatment and you need not to fear that your daughter might get rabies even in future.
please complete the doses suggested by your doctor for the good safety of your daughter.
local washing of wound immediately kills any virus lodged in to the human tissue and giving of equirab an immunoglobulin transfers the passive immunity to give protection from rabies and injection rabipur helps your daughter to devolop life long immunity against rabies.
hope i have cleared your doubt
