Rabies and alcohol

I was bitten by a stray dog and I made 3 vaccinations on the first, third and seventh days. The last one I did on 6th september. I want to know if I can drink alcohol and if not, what effect will it cause. Can it cause allergy or smth? Today is 11th September.

btw, the dog was under observation and it didn't die.

Hello,
There are no known interactions between rabies vaccine and alcohol .Alcohol does not affect the efficacy of the vaccine. Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may cause interactions. It is best to discuss your concerns with your healthcare professional before intake of alcohol. I sincerely hope it helps.
Brest of luck and regards!
