You're on the correct post-exposure prophylaxis schedule. Since you started ARV on day 0 after the scratch and continued through day 7, completing the schedule on day 28 will provide adequate protection. Immunoglobulin is typically given on day 0 for category 3 exposures, so follow your doctor's advice.
Next Steps
Complete all remaining ARV doses on schedule (day 28) Follow your doctor's prescribed protocol Monitor bite site for infection signs No additional vaccines needed if schedule completed
Health Tips
Don't miss any vaccine doses. Rabies is 100% fatal once symptoms appear but 100% preventable with proper vaccination. Your current schedule is appropriate for the exposure category.

Do not mix immunoglobulin with anto rabies vaccine, since your body is already getting arv, then as per protocol, it is advised to finish the earlier started vaccine doses and not to give ig. So congratulations, you are on right medication.
