What is ZUVIRAB INJ used for?

Prevention of rabies (immunization) for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in high-risk individuals and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) after suspected/confirmed exposure to rabies.

How ZUVIRAB INJ Works

This inactivated rabies vaccine stimulates the immune system to produce rabies virus neutralizing antibodies. These antibodies help prevent the rabies virus from establishing infection after exposure and provide protection in high-risk individuals.

Common IM site: deltoid in adults/children (anterolateral thigh in small children); do not inject into gluteal region. Reconstitute with supplied diluent and use immediately after reconstitution; complete the full course. In PEP, rabies immunoglobulin may also be required for category III exposures as advised by a clinician.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
