How long does rabivax protection last?

2025-05-21 15:16:51
I got my 5 doses (0, 3, 7, 14, and 28 days) of rabies vaccine back in September 2024. My cat is vaccinated but his vaccine booster is due in a week. He scratched me and though the wound isn't deep, it took a minute for the blood to stop flowing. I also got a tiny scratch from a stray yesterday, which tore the skin but did not bleed apart from a few drops. Should I get the vaccine again? Or am I protected due to the last dose?

Re exposure within three months of the full course of Rabies post exposure prophylaxis doesn't require any further vaccination. But if it's after three months then you need to take booster doses on day 0 and day 3. Since your cat is due for a booster shot and you also got scratched by a stray I'd recommend getting two booster shots.
