No, it is not an issue that you received the anti-rabies (ARV) booster dose in the same arm as the tetanus toxoid (TT) vaccine five days later. The vaccines are still effective.

There is no issue if received in same arm. Intradermal regimen for arv as pre exposure prophylaxis includes 2 site vaccine administration on day 0,7. So it will be given in both arms at one time
