Kindly suggest the dose and schedule of intradermal anti rabiese vaccine in both arm. Dr has prescribed in our local govt hospital for my child as 0,3,7 and 28 day.
Also, given Equirab IG vaccine at wound area. And taking Clavam antibiotic.
Is it a standard protocol for dog bite treatment related with my seven year old child.
Kindly suggest any other medicine/precaution for child and for other family members. Is any other cause of concern of dog bite. We are very tense due to this. Plsss

Your child is receiving the correct treatment. The intradermal anti-rabies vaccine on days 0, 3, 7, & 28 (both arms, 0.1 mL each site) is standard.
Equirab (rabies immunoglobulin) at the wound site & Clavam antibiotic are appropriate. No vaccine needed for family unless bitten or had direct contact with saliva.
Next Steps
Monitor the wound, complete all doses, & observe the dog if possible.
Health Tips
Rabies is preventable with timely treatment — no need to panic if protocol is followed properly.
