I'm really concerned about a cat scratch I got five days ago, and it could be a category 2 wound. I'm currently on the rabies vaccine, and I'm wondering if it's safe to take some antibiotics alongside it. Will that mix well, or could it cause any complications?

It's important to follow your doctor's advice when taking the rabies vaccine after a potential exposure. Generally, antibiotics are not required unless there's a sign of infection at the wound site. If you are concerned about infection or the wound worsening, its best to consult your healthcare provider for appropriate care.
