Can You Get Post-exposure Anti- Rabies Vaccines (immunogloblin And Shots)
Question: Can you get post-exposure anti-rabies vaccines (immunogloblin and shots) at the same time you get a Hepatitis B vaccine. Would getting the two vaccines together at the same time or near each other decrease or neutralize the effects of the anti-rabies vaccine and/or Hepatitis B vaccine?
Brief Answer:
Yes, can be taken together
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Yes, you can take both vaccines during the same period.
I believe only the first dose of each may be on same day but the rest doses are well spaced.
There will be no difference in the immune response, compared to taken when separately from each other.
Hope, I answered your query.
Wish you good health.
