What Is Rabies, and Why Vaccination Matters
Rabies is a serious disease that affects the brain and nervous system. It’s spread through the bite or scratch of an infected animal such as a dog, bat, fox, or raccoon.
Once symptoms develop, rabies is almost always fatal, which is why prevention through rabies immunisation is vital.
The rabies jab trains your immune system to recognise and fight the virus if you are ever exposed, giving you strong and long-lasting protection while travelling.
Who Should Get the Rabies Vaccine?
- Travelling to or living in areas where rabies is common.
- Visiting rural or remote regions with limited access to medical care.
- Working with or spending time around animals.
- Planning outdoor activities such as camping or trekking.
Our pharmacists will review your travel plans, lifestyle, and health background to confirm if rabies protection is right for you.

How the Rabies Vaccine Works
The rabies vaccine helps your body build protection by creating antibodies against the virus. It’s usually given as three doses over 21–28 days, but if you’re travelling soon, it can be completed in just 7 days.
If you work with animals or travel often, booster doses might be recommended. Our expert pharmacists will guide you through your personalised schedule and answer any questions along the way.

You should aim to complete your rabies vaccination at least three to four weeks before travelling to allow enough time for full immunity.
