What is Rabies?

Rabies is a serious viral infection transmitted through bites, scratches or saliva from infected animals. Dogs are the most common source of rabies worldwide, although bats, monkeys and other mammals may also carry the virus.

Rabies affects the nervous system and is almost always fatal once symptoms begin. Because of this, prevention through vaccination and rapid medical treatment after exposure is extremely important.

Countries with higher rabies risk include:

India
Thailand
Indonesia
Nepal
Philippines
Parts of Africa
China
South America

Travellers visiting remote locations or areas with limited medical access may benefit from pre-exposure rabies vaccination before departure.

Pre-Exposure Rabies Vaccine in E13

At Newmans Pharmacy, we provide pre-exposure rabies vaccine services in E13 for travellers at increased risk of rabies exposure.

Pre-exposure vaccination helps prepare your immune system before potential exposure to rabies. While it does not eliminate the need for medical treatment after a bite or scratch, it significantly simplifies emergency treatment and improves protection.

Rabies Vaccine Schedule

The standard pre-exposure rabies vaccination course includes:

Three doses of vaccine
Given on days 0, 7 and 21 or 28
Booster doses may be required for ongoing risk

Because the course requires multiple appointments, we strongly recommend booking your travel consultation as early as possible before travelling.

Our pharmacists will assess your travel plans and advise whether rabies vaccination is recommended for your destination and activities.
