Can you get antibodies if you don’t get five doses of rabies vaccine?

If the rabies vaccine has not been given five injections, whether antibodies can be produced should be judged according to the type of vaccine injection. At present, the rabies vaccine is mainly divided into three-needle, four-needle, and five-needle methods, if it belongs to the three-needle and four-needle methods, the antibodies can be produced without the fifth injection; however, if it belongs to the five-needle method, and the injection is not completed, whether antibodies can be produced should be judged according to the individual’s situation and the absorption of the drug. If the rabies vaccine chosen is the three-shot method or four-shot method, the fifth shot is not required, and antibodies can be produced after the third and fourth shots. The three-shot method is mainly for pre-exposure vaccination, with one dose on days 0, 7 and 21 respectively; the four-shot method is mainly for post-exposure vaccination, with one dose on days 0, 7 and 21 respectively. However, if you choose the five-shot method, you may not be able to produce antibodies without the fifth shot, which should be judged according to your physical condition and absorption of the drug. The five-shot method requires one dose each at 0, 3, 7, 14, and 28 days after exposure. It is important to know which type of rabies vaccine you have chosen, and if you are in the five-dose method and have not completed the fifth dose, you should get vaccinated in a timely manner, and consult your physician for details.
