FAQs
What is Kamrab Injection? What is it used for?
Kamrab 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 Kamrab Injection?
Rabies is a 100% preventable disease. Proper wound management and simultaneous administration of Kamrab Injection combined with anti-rabies vaccine (ARV) is almost invariably effective in preventing rabies, even after high-risk exposure.
Is Kamrab Injection necessary?
Kamrab Injection is not required for patients who have previously received a complete vaccination series of rabies.
Is Kamrab Injection painful?
Whether Kamrab Injection is painful or not depends on your pain tolerance. During your initial treatment, a healthcare professional will put Kamrab Injection in the area where you were bitten. This can be painful. Therefore, a relatively greater amount of Kamrab 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 Kamrab Injection?
Equine Rabies Immunoglobulin is more economical as compared to Kamrab Injection i.e., human rabies immunoglobulin (HRIG). Hence, it is more affordable to patients in developing countries, like India. 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.
