Rabies Vaccine
Pre-exposure vaccine: Recommended for travelers to high-risk regions before they leave
About this treatment
Rabies is a viral disease affecting the nervous system that is nearly always fatal once symptoms appear but is preventable with prompt post-exposure vaccinations. It is spread by the saliva of an infected animal, usually via a bite or scratch, especially from dogs. Symptoms like fever and headache can occur, followed by more severe issues like confusion and paralysis. If you are potentially exposed, you should immediately wash the wound, seek medical help, and consider pre-exposure vaccines if traveling to a high-risk area.
