I'm a bit worried after a street dog touched my nose and licked my hand this morning. It happened around 11, and I washed my hand about 10 minutes later. The dog didn't bite me, and there's no wound on my hand. Do you think I should get a vaccine for this, or is it okay to wait and see?

I'm on chymoral forte three times daily and cynomycin twice a day, but I didn't catch when exactly I'm supposed to take them. Is it supposed to be before or after meals? And how long should I wait between eating and taking these meds? I found some info online saying chymoral forte is to be taken half an hour before meals and cynomycin two hours after meals. Does that sound right to you?
both medicine should be taken after food
