Rabies vaccine

2022-07-23 03:14:24
How often do i need to be vaccinated if I work with street dogs frequently? Last September-October, I have taken 5 doses of XPRAB. I have not been bitten but I get constantly licked (mostly on clothes, but sometimes also on skin) How often do I need to be revaccinated? Since its almost a year I was wondering if i need any doses

You can wait upto 24 month, without exposure. According to you , you are exposed daily with street dogs ( licking is dangerous) Better you take complete doses of vaccination again
