Is It Safe To Substitute Rabipur Vaccine With Verorab?

default
Posted on Wed, 1 Jun 2016
Question: I have taken my 4 vaccines for rabies as per 5 dose schedule . For my first 3 vaccines I took rabipur, but for the 4th one I took verorab since rabipur was not available at the place where I was during that time. Is that ok or it could create any issues? I believe rabipur and verorab have the same content so they can be easily substituted.
