How Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection 1 ML Works?

Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection contains the following components:

Antirabies vaccine-ARV (2.5 IU): Antirabies vaccine-ARV is used to prevent the deadly rabies disease. It contains inactivated rabies virus, which stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies against it. These antibodies prepare the body to fight off potential future rabies exposure by neutralising the virus before it can cause harm. This process mimics a natural infection without causing the disease, thereby equipping the immune system to respond effectively if exposed to the rabies virus in the future.

Pregnancy

The use of this medicine during pregnancy should be carefully considered and discussed with your doctor. While the benefits of vaccination typically outweigh the risks, especially in the event of potential rabies exposure, consulting your doctor is essential to ensure the best decision for your situation.

Breastfeeding

Caution is advised while using this medicine during breastfeeding. While the benefits of vaccination generally outweigh the risks, particularly in cases of potential rabies exposure, it is crucial to seek medical advice to make the best decision for your circumstances.

Alcohol

Consult your doctor regarding alcohol consumption during treatment with Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection, as it may interfere with the medication's efficacy or increase side effects.

Liver

If you have liver health issues, it is advised to consult your doctor before using Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection. Considering your health status, your doctor can assess if this medicine suits you.

Kidney

Caution is advised while taking this injection if you have kidney problems. If you have kidney-related health issues, inform your doctor before using Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection. They will evaluate your condition to determine if the medication is safe.

Using Machines & Driving

Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection may cause dizziness or fatigue. If you experience these symptoms, avoid driving or operating heavy machinery until you feel safe to do so.

Allergy

Avoid this medicine if you are allergic to the Antirabies vaccine-ARV or any other Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection components. Inform your doctor about all known allergies before starting this medication.

Children

Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection is to be given to children above 2 years of age, specifically when prescribed by a doctor. Consult your doctor before giving this medicine to children below 2 years of age.

Older Patients

Older patients should take Rabipur 2.5 IU Injection under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects, particularly regarding kidney and liver health. It is advisable to discuss any health-related concerns with your doctor before starting this medicine.
