Chirorab Vaccine is given to people who are at higher risk of coming in contact with rabies, such as veterinarians, and to people after an animal bite if the animal could have rabies. Chirorab Vaccine is given by injection by a doctor or nurse. It is administered post thorough washing (for about 15 minutes with soap and copious amounts of water) of all bite wounds as early as possible. The sooner treatment is begun after exposure, the better. Post-exposure anti-rabies vaccination should always include administration of both Immunoglobulin and vaccine, with the exception of persons who have previously received complete vaccination regimens. It is very important to complete the course of the vaccine to prevent this fatal disease.
Chirorab Vaccine is an inactivated vaccine..It helps develop immunity by forming antibodies, which are proteins that protect against infection caused by viruses.
