ARV recommendations

2025-02-10 13:50:17
One doctor on YouTube channel said that now even if there is a dog bite again within 3 months of taking full course of ARVs (5 doses), still each time there is a re-exposure one has to take 2 boosters, that is even if one has completed a full course 6 days back and again on 7th day there is a fresh dog bite one has to take boosters. But in vaccine literature of Chirorab or WHO or National guidelines on internet it says if documented evidence within 3 months only wound washing required? Please advise if booster needed within 3 months?

Booster needed if the cut is deep, oozing of blood or contact of dog saliva with your body fluid. Otherwise within 3 months of previous vaccination, in case of re exposure - just vigorous washing and cleaning of wound under running water will help. Kindly connect over chat for further assistance
