Rabies Vaccine While Pregnant

A pregnant woman should receive rabies vaccine if indicated. No fetal abnormalities have been reported with the rabies vaccine. A pregnant woman can receive routine pre-exposure vaccination against rabies if her risk of exposure is high. The vast majority of people will not experience any reaction after being vaccinated against rabies, and only some of the vaccinated individuals may experience mild vaccination reactions. Common local injections include redness, swelling, pain, itching, and systemic symptoms such as fever, dizziness, headache, fatigue, general malaise, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, etc. Most of these symptoms are relatively mild and can gradually releases within a few days to a week. A small number of patients will have moderate or higher fever and rash, and appropriate symptomatic treatment can be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.
