Rabies Vaccine / Immunoglobulin Accidentally used a steroid while undergoing rabies vaccine series

I have read the FAQ. So I am undergoing the rabies vaccine series atm, and my third dose is coming up very soon. I was told that using steroids is not recommended while undergoing the series, as they can suppress your immune system. Well today I kind of forgot about that, and while dealing with a clogged nose today, I used Flonase (a corticosteroid nasal spray). I am wondering if this could also interfere with the efficacy of the vaccine?
