Pregnancy: One animal toxicity study on reproduction and development led with another inactivated rabies vaccine produced in VERO cells, did not evidence any deleterious effect on female fertility and on pre-and post-natal development.
Clinical use of rabies vaccines (inactivated "WISTAR Rabies PM/WI38 1503-3M strain") during a limited number of pregnancies did not show any malformative or fetotoxic effects to date.
Pre-exposure prophylaxis: Given the seriousness of the disease, in case of high risk contamination, vaccination should be performed during pregnancy, in compliance with the usual vaccination schedule.
Post-exposure prophylaxis: Given the seriousness of the disease, pregnancy is not a contraindication.
Lactation: This vaccine can be used during lactation.
Fertility: Verorab has not been evaluated in fertility studies.
