Frequestly asked Questions

What is Berirab P 750IU Injection? What is it used for?

Berirab P 750IU Injection is a solution containing a large amount of rabies antibodies. It is used to provide protection against rabies. It is given either along with the first dose of anti-rabies vaccine(ARV) or not more than 7 days later.

How effective is Berirab P 750IU Injection?

Rabies is a 100% preventable disease. Proper wound management and simultaneous administration of Berirab P 750IU Injection combined with anti-rabies vaccine (ARV) is almost invariably effective in preventing rabies, even after high-risk exposure.

Is Berirab P 750IU Injection necessary?

Is Berirab P 750IU Injection painful?

Whether Berirab P 750IU Injection is painful or not depends on your pain tolerance. During your initial treatment, a healthcare professional will put Berirab P 750IU Injection in the area where you were bitten. This can be painful. Therefore, a relatively greater amount of Berirab P 750IU Injection may be required to be placed in and around the wound site to ease out your pain and treat infection.

Is Equine Rabies Immunoglobulin better than Berirab P 750IU Injection?

Equine Rabies Immunoglobulin is more economical as compared to Berirab P 750IU Injection i.e., human rabies immunoglobulin (HRIG).

However, Equine Rabies Immunoglobulin has a high potential to cause anaphylaxis (a severe, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction), serum sickness and other allergic reactions and thus physicians are hesitant to use it.
