We are committed to providing safe and effective solutions for post-exposure prophylaxis against rabies. Our product, ChiroRab, is developed with the highest safety standards to ensure maximum protection for individuals exposed to the rabies virus. We prioritise patient safety and encourage open communication about any pre-existing allergies, such as severe allergies to eggs or egg products, antibiotics or polygeline. We aim to support healthcare providers and patients with trusted, high-quality vaccines and essential medical information to guide safe administration.
ChiroRab is a vaccine containing inactivated rabies virus. After administration, our immune system creates a ‘memory’ of the virus, thus preparing our body for any possible attack in the future. None of the components of the vaccine can cause rabies.
ChiroRab will be given to you/your child by a doctor or nurse trained to provide vaccines. Treatment that may be needed to manage severe types of allergic reactions that can occur after receipt of the vaccine should be available (see section 4 of this leaflet). The vaccine should be given to you/your child in a clinic or surgery with the necessary equipment to treat these reactions.
The end of this leaflet contains instructions for reconstituting the vaccine for doctors and medical personnel.
The recommended dose for adults and children of any age is one millilitre (1.0 ml) per injection.
Your doctor will decide how many doses you/your child should receive, depending on whether you/ your child are/are being given ChiroRab before or after any possible contact with the virus.
The vaccine is given as an injection into a muscle (usually the upper arm or, in small children, the muscle of the thigh).
