• Prevent rabies infection
Twinrab 1500IU injection contains two antibodies: docaravimab and miromavimab. These antibodies bind to the rabies virus and prevent it from entering and infecting nerve cells and other cells in the body. This interruption of the virus's ability to replicate and spread within the body is crucial for halting the progression of rabies infection.
Side effects are unwanted symptoms caused by medicines. Even though all medicines cause side effects, not everyone gets them.
