Rabies Booster Doses Validity
Doubt For Rabies Booster doses that is given on Day 0 and Day 3 that is 2 doses Regimen
[Note - I am not asking for 4-5 doses of the Primary Rabies regimen given for the First Time ]
Is there no need for rabies re-vaccination if a person is bitten by a dog again within 3 months (90 days) after completing the rabies booster doses ? ( Note - here I am not talking about the primary dose regimen, I am talking about the booster dose regimen only)
Does the 3-month rule apply to Rabies Booster doses as well, or is it only for the 4–5 dose primary regimen given for the first time ?

The 3 month rule applies to Rabies Booster doses also.So if you have already taken rabies booster dose and within 3 months you have a dog bite then no need of again vaccination for Rabies.

Yes. The 90 day concept remains same for the booster dose as well. If you have been fully vaccinated in the last 3 months, and were bitten by a rabid animal in that 3 month period, you DO NOT need to take any primary/booster regimen
