What Should I Do if I Can't Afford the Rabies Vaccine?
Indigent Patient Programs

Sanofi pasteur’s Indigent Patient Program (providing Imogam ® Rabies-HT and Imovax ® Rabies) is administered through the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD). Information can be obtained by contacting NORD at 1-877-798-8716 or by emailing nnadiq@rarediseases.org to obtain an application. The RabAvert ® Patient Assistance Program is managed through Rx for Hope and can be accessed at 1-800-244-7668 or at www.rabavert.com* on the "How to Order" page.
