Patient concerns
FAQs
Is Zyrig 1000IU Injection better than human rabies immunoglobulin?
Zyrig 1000IU Injection is more economical as compared to human rabies immunoglobulin (HRIG) and hence more affordable to patients in developing countries, like India. However, Zyrig 1000IU Injection may cause anaphylaxis (a severe, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction), serum sickness and other allergic reactions and thus, physicians are hesitant to use it.
How effective is Zyrig 1000IU Injection?
Rabies is a 100% preventable disease. Proper wound management and simultaneous administration of Zyrig 1000IU Injection combined with anti-rabies vaccine (ARV) is almost invariably effective in preventing rabies, even after high-risk exposure.
Is Zyrig 1000IU Injection necessary?
Zyrig 1000IU Injection is not required for patients who have previously received a complete vaccination series of rabies.
How do you administer Zyrig 1000IU Injection ?
Zyrig 1000IU Injection should be administered into the muscle (the intramuscularly). If a large volume (> 2mL for children or > 5 mL for adults) is required, it is advised to divide the doses and for each dose a different site should be used. The immunoglobulin and the anti-rabies vaccine should be administered at two different sites of the body.
Is Zyrig 1000IU Injection painful?
Whether Zyrig 1000IU Injection is painful or not depends on your pain tolerance. During your initial treatment, a healthcare professional will put Zyrig 1000IU Injection in the area where you were bitten which can be painful. Therefore, you may need a relatively greater amount of Zyrig 1000IU Injection may be required to be placed in and around the wound site to ease out your pain and treat infection.
