Rabies vaccine can be taken post exposure prophylaxis or pre exposure prophylaxis

You don't take preventive shot by taking a single injection.
It is known as pre-exposure prophylaxis. That means you have not been bitten by a dog but you are staying or working in an area where you have the danger of being bitten by a dog.
For further details about pre-exposure prophylaxis please consult with me on Practo.
