Is There Any Problem For Missing Dose Of Rabipur Vaccine?
hi. i was bitten by stray dog before 13 days. i took titanas injection on next day in bmc. then i missed 1st dose of rabipur. other 3 doses of rabipur i took. and now last dose of rabipur is to take on 20th oct. 2011. what shall i do for missed 1st dose of rabipur? any risk factor?
There is nothing you can do at this point regarding missed dose of the rabipur. If you complete the immunisation, it would still provide your with a lot of protection against possible rabies.
It is quite possible that the dog, though a stray, does not have this infection as its prevalence is decreasing world wide.
You would likely be ok since you did receive shots even if not on the first day.
I hope this helps
