Dog Bite – Rabies Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP)

1. Immediate Wound Care (MOST IMPORTANT)
Wash thoroughly with soap + running water for at least 15 minutes
Apply antiseptic (e.g., povidone-iodine / chlorhexidine)

This step alone can reduce viral load significantly

2. Tetanus Prophylaxis
Tetanus toxoid (TT): 0.5 mL IM
Add tetanus immunoglobulin if indicated (dirty wound + incomplete immunization)

3. Rabies Vaccine (Active Immunization)
IM (Essen regimen):
Days: 0, 3, 7, 14, 28
Dose: 0.5 mL IM in deltoid (anterolateral thigh in children)

πŸ§ͺ Human RIG (HRIG)

πŸ§ͺ Equine RIG (ERIG)
