Side effects of Anti Rabies vaccine.

2017-09-13 13:45:28
I started a post exposure course of anti rabies vaccine on Monday evening. I was given XPRAB and Tetvac on my left arm and waist, respectively From Tuesday afternoon onwards I'm having feverishness and body ache. Also the site of both the injections are painful to touch. I took a crocin last night; but today also I have slight fever, body ache and general weakness. Is this normal? Should I take a Dolo 650 today for this? Thank you in advance.
