Precautions and contraindications after rabies vaccination include diet, medication, review and adverse reactions.
1. Diet: avoid consuming irritating food such as chili, pepper, ginger, mustard, etc. after taking rabies vaccine to avoid inflammation at the injection site, and avoid excessive alcohol consumption to avoid inactivation of some components of the rabies vaccine or changing its activity, which will affect the effect of the vaccine.
2. Drugs: You can’t use hormone drugs or immunosuppressants, such as prednisone tablets, dexamethasone tablets, etc., to avoid interfering with the production of antibodies and affecting the effect of the vaccine.
3. Review: About 2 weeks after the rabies vaccination, patients should go to the hospital for further examination to check whether antibodies are produced in the body. If no antibodies are produced, the vaccine should be revaccinated.
4. Adverse reactions: After taking rabies vaccine, patients should pay attention to whether there are any adverse reactions, such as nausea, vomiting, headache, respiratory restriction, wheezing, etc. If the patient develops symptoms after taking rabies vaccine, he/she should go to the hospital for further examination.
If any of these adverse reactions occur after rabies vaccination, the patient should go to the hospital in time, investigate the cause of the disease and then take treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
