A member asked:

Rabies vaccine side effects? got my shot yesterday now i feel nauseous is it normal? bitten by my pet rabbit; he's still alive.

Rabbit bite: For a rabbit bite to cause rabies would be extremely unusual. Dogs cause 99% of human rabies and I have never seen a case report in the literature of rabies from a rabbit. Hopefully the bite wound is OK- that might be causing the nausea if u have a low grade infection there. Only a few percent of people will get nausea from a rabies vaccine. Hope doc will check you bite wound soon.

Rabies Vaccine: Rabies vaccine side effects include red or sore injection site, joint pain, fever or hives. Not certain if the vaccine was the cause of your nausea.
