Rabies

Rabies Overview

Rabies is a disease humans may get from being bitten by an animal infected with the rabies virus. Rabies has been recognized for over 4,000 years. Yet, despite great advances in diagnosing and preventing it, today rabies is almost always deadly in humans who contract it and do not receive treatment.

Medical Treatment

Treatment to prevent rabies has 3 essential components if a high probability of viral transmission exists. Depending on the likelihood the animal has rabies and, in some cases, the availability of the animal for observation, your doctor may not initiate the latter 2 steps involving shots against the rabies virus.

Wound care involving soap and a virus-killing cleanser (this should always be done)

A one-time injection of human rabies immune globulin (or HRIG), which is a substance that provides rapid, short-term protection against rabies

Injection of the first of a series of vaccine doses to provide protection against rabies after an exposure
