Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Rabies Vaccine Shortage

I contacted Novartis late last week. I was told that they were "not in a back-order situation" but rather were limiting doses to post-exposure. You cannot place orders directly with Novartis, but you can place drop ship orders through your wholesaler. I was able to place an order for 4 doses of Rabavert through McKesson yesterday. When I spoke with the McKesson rep they said I could only order the number of doses needed to complete the therapy. So...keep that in mind when you are calling your wholesaler. I have not seen the order be delivered yet. If any problems arise and I don't get my order, I will put up another posting.
