[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, As your son was bitten by a stray dog it is very important to initiate the treatment as early as possible, as dog can transmit rabies, which is 100 % fatal, but it is 100% preventable by proper and adequate treatment. I would suggest him to give 1. Active immunization with anti rabies vaccine on days 0,3,7,14 and 28. Give him a first shot of anti rabies vaccine as early as possible and consider first shot of injection as day 0.2. Passive immunization with rabies immunoglobulin in and around the wound.3. Oral Tab Autoclave, 375 mg, twice daily for five days. The aforementioned treatment will help to protect your son against getting rabies. Thank you.
