Thank you for query.I think the days are too old to advice you any thing.Usual dates are 0 3 7 14 28 and 90 th day from the day of 1st dose of antirabies vaccine is given.the dosage and sites are different for different routes(intradermal or intramuscular).Usually it is over treated as rabies is 100% fatal.
