Equirab 1500 Injection

Product Description

Equirab 1500 Injection is given as an injection by a doctor or nurse. It is indicated in individuals with category III exposures (in-depth injury). RIG neutralizes the rabies virus at the inoculation site before the immune system responds to the vaccine by the production of rabies virus-neutralizing antibodies. Both active (vaccine) and passive immunization (Immunoglobulin) prevent the rabies virus from infiltrating the central nervous system, but become ineffective once the virus has crossed into the central nervous system. Equirab 1500 Injection is administered only once in a lifetime.

The most common side effects include nausea, rash, and stomach upset. They do not normally last very long. Sitting or lying down can sometimes help. Consult your doctor if any of the side effects persist or worry you.

Before having the injection, you should tell your doctor if you have ever had an allergic reaction to an immunoglobulin. Some other medicines may react with the equine rabies immunoglobulin so talk to your doctor about other medications you are taking as well. You should consult your doctor first if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Comprehensive Rabies Protection

Equirab 1500 Injection delivers immediate passive immunity against rabies, vital for those who may have been exposed to the rabies virus. Intended for use alongside the standard rabies vaccine, it helps neutralize the virus swiftly, reducing the risk of infection. Its equine-derived immunoglobulin formulation is well recognized in clinical practice for post-exposure prophylaxis.


Proper Handling and Storage

To retain potency, Equirab 1500 Injection should be stored under cool and dry conditions. This careful storage ensures the stability of the immunoglobulin, keeping it effective until use. Each unit comes individually packaged, with distribution managed by authenticated suppliers across India to guarantee quality and safety.
