INDICATIONS
This medicinal product is a vaccine. 
PRE-EXPOSURE
This vaccine is recommended for the prevention of rabies in subjects
at a high risk of exposure. 
All subjects at a permanent risk, such as diagnostic, research and
production laboratory staff working on rabies virus,
should be vaccinated. A serological test is recommended every 6
months. A booster injection should be administered
when the antibody titre is below the level considered to guarantee
protection: 0.5 I.U./ml. 
The following categories should be vaccinated given the frequency of
exposure to the risk:                
– veterinarians (and assistants), gamekeepers, hunters, forest
rangers, slaughterhouse personnel, cavers, taxidermists, 
– subjects exposed enzootic areas: children, adults and travellers
visiting these areas. 
POST-EXPOSURE
After confirmed or suspected exposure, vaccination must be started
immediately at the slightest risk of contamination
with rabies. It must be performed in a rabies treatment centre. 
The treatment is adapted to the type of wound and the status of the
animal.
