Cat scratch on bp patient on meds

2023-02-19 06:21:45
I recently got scratched by an unvaccinated domestic cat on my hand. I have been taking  medicines for my high bp: moxovas 0.2mg and Amtas M50 tablets . It's a small scratch but there was some bleeding as well. I took tetanus shot around 2 years back. Do I need to get an injection for this and is there anything I need to worry about?
