Important Warnings

Rabies is fatal—do not delay vaccination after exposure. Proper wound washing and medical evaluation are essential; rabies immunoglobulin is required for category III exposures (as per guidelines). Do not administer intravenously. Use with caution in persons with acute severe febrile illness (vaccination may be postponed if appropriate). History of severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) to a previous dose or vaccine components is a contraindication; ensure emergency treatment is available. Immunocompromised patients may have reduced response and may need antibody testing/extra doses per guidelines.

Drug Interactions

ABHAYRAB PF may interact with the following:

Immunosuppressants (e.g.
high-dose corticosteroids
chemotherapy
biologics) may reduce vaccine response; chloroquine may reduce response to intradermal rabies vaccination; concomitant administration with rabies immunoglobulin is permitted for post-exposure prophylaxis but should be given at different sites and not mixed in the same syringe.

Always tell your doctor about all medicines you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.
