Anti rabies vaccine effect duration

2024-07-04 06:02:57
Dr. I need clarification of anti rabies vaccine protection duration. I had dog bit in dec 2023. So I have taken ARV 4 doses(last dose in 11 th Jan 2024). And in April 2024 I had minor dog bite and I have taken 2 booster dose in 12th and 17th April 2024. My question is how long I have been protected by these 6 doses of ARV in past 6 months. I have doubt that dog bite me yesterday night dog chasing me while travelling in bike . So please advise me I need to take again booster or not.
