Rabies Vaccine diet
I got bit by pet dog, who went missing for a day and found. He was scared, that led to bite me. I can see blood , small wound.
I washed with sanitizer, i couldn't find soap and water that time. The pet dog was upto the vaccination schedule.
He even got anti rabies shot , one hour before biting me.
In 2 hrs from biting I had the first dose of rabivax-s human.
Should I be worried? Can I eat Non-veg during the course?

You have taken the right steps by getting the first dose of Rabivax-S (anti-rabies vaccine) within 2 hours of the dog bite. Since your pet dog was fully vaccinated, the risk of rabies transmission is significantly low. However, it is still advisable to complete the full vaccination schedule as per medical guidelines.
Should You Be Worried?
✔ Since the dog was vaccinated, the chances of rabies transmission are extremely low.
✔ You have started post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) on time, which is crucial.
✔ Keep observing the dog for 10-14 days—if the dog remains healthy, rabies risk is minimal.
✔ Ensure you take all doses of the vaccine as prescribed.
Can You Eat Non-Veg During the Course?
✔ There is no medical restriction on consuming non-vegetarian food while taking the rabies vaccine.
✔ However, it is advisable to avoid excessive spicy, oily, or processed food to support your immune system.
Since rabies is a serious condition, I recommend a detailed consultation to review your wound, vaccination status, and overall health. You can reach me on WhatsApp at eight zero zero nine eight two one three three two for further guidance.
