there is no evidence to suggest that steroids have a significant impact on the memory of the rabies vaccine. The rabies vaccine works by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against the rabies virus. Steroids may affect the immune system, but it is unlikely to interfere with the memory of the rabies vaccine if you received the complete course of vaccination.

If you completed the full course of the rabies vaccine (including the initial series of shots and any booster doses) one year ago, and you have been re-exposed to a potential rabies risk, you may need a booster dose of the vaccine rather than the full course.

In the case of potential rabies exposure, it's essential to seek immediate medical attention. Your healthcare provider will assess your previous vaccination history, the nature of the re-exposure, and any specific risk factors to determine the appropriate course of action.

Remember, recommendations and guidelines related to vaccinations can change over time, and it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional for the most up-to-date and accurate advice. They will be able to provide you with personalized recommendations based on your individual health history and circumstances.
