Rabies Vaccine Southampton
Jetset Health Clinic
Jetset Health offers comprehensive rabies vaccination services in Southampton for travellers. Our experienced clinicians provide expert guidance on rabies prevention for your travel needs.
Rabies is a serious viral disease that affects the nervous system and is almost always fatal once symptoms appear. The rabies vaccine is essential for travellers visiting high-risk areas, especially if you'll be spending time in rural areas, working with animals, or travelling to regions where immediate medical care may not be readily available.
Rabies Vaccination Schedule
The rabies vaccine is given as a course of injections. At Jetset Health, we offer both intramuscular (IM) and intradermal (ID) vaccination regimes:
Intramuscular (IM) Regime
Pre-exposure course
3 doses given on days 0, 7, and 21 or 28
Administration
Injected into the muscle (upper arm)
Booster
One booster dose recommended at 1 year for continued protection if you remain at risk
Intradermal (ID) Regime
Pre-exposure course
2 doses given intradermally on days 0 and 7
Administration
Injected into the skin layers (typically forearm)
Cost-effective for groups
One vial can make enough doses for two people, making it ideal for couples or groups travelling together
Booster
One booster dose at 1 year for ongoing protection if still at risk
Our clinicians at Jetset Health will assess your individual circumstances and recommend the most suitable vaccination regime for your travel needs.
Rabies Vaccine Protection
- Initial protection: 1-2 years of immunity after completing the pre-exposure course
- Extended protection: Approximately 10 years (possibly longer) when receiving the 1-year booster
- 100% effective: No patient who has been vaccinated against rabies has ever died from the disease when the vaccine course was completed properly
Who Needs the Rabies Vaccine?
Consider rabies vaccination if you're:
Traveling to countries where rabies is common (Asia, Africa, Central and South America)
Planning outdoor activities like camping, hiking, or cycling in rural areas
Working with animals or in veterinary settings
Visiting remote areas where medical care is not readily accessible
Staying for extended periods in endemic areas
