• Human Diploid Cell Rabies Vaccine (HDCV, Imovax ®)

1990 – 2015: 1,611 reports

• Purified Chick Embryo Cell (PCEC, RabAvert®)

• Most common adverse events (AEs) included pyrexia, headache, myalgia and nausea

• 5.8 – 7 % were serious AEs * (death, hospitalization, prolonged hospitalization, disability, life-threatening-illness)


*Some appeared to be unrelated to vaccination


• Allergic reactions were mostly urticaria, rash and angioedema


Dobardzic A, et. al. Vaccine 2007;25:4244-51

*No pattern among 13 neurological AEs suggesting a plausible relationship to vaccination

10 min after 1st dose of PCEC: dizziness, sweats, pruritus, N/V,

hypotension and tachycardia

Dx: psychovegetative reaction

* If nature of allergy is not severe reactions, e.g. anaphylaxis

If investigation could not be done…

U.S. ACIP recommendation (1)

• Once initiated, rabies prophylaxis should not be discontinued because of local or mild systemic AEs

• Usually, such reactions can be successfully managed with symptomatic treatment

Manning SE, et al. MMWR Recomm Rep 2008;57:1-28

U.S. ACIP recommendation (2)

• When a person with hypersensitivity to rabies vaccine must be revaccinated, empiric intervention such as pretreatment with antihistamines might be considered.

• Epinephrine should be readily available

• Person should be carefully observed after vaccination

Manning SE, et al. MMWR Recomm Rep 2008;57:1-28

Optional management in case of mild AEs

• Switch to other brand of rabies vaccine

Graded challenge in immediate reactions

Other managements

• Observe responsible cat or dogs for 10 days

• Check rabies neutralizing antibody

Summary

• Local/mild reactions are common and do not contraindicate future doses

• Risk for acquiring rabies must be carefully considered before deciding to discontinue vaccination

• Allergy to rabies biologics are rare and should be further evaluated
