Anyone try Rituximab?

What side effects have patients experienced after a single infusion of Rituximab?

I have had RRMS since 2001. I have been on all the ABC and R's...and also Tysabri and had allergic reactions, so had to stop.

Rituximab has been offered by my neurologist. It seems almost too simple....one infusion?

What are your thoughts and opinions on this?

Has anyone been on this? Side effects?

Sincerely,

Terri G

Terri,

I have been going through many of the older Shareposts and found yours here. I'm interested in knowing if you did go with Rituximab. I'm also considering it since it might help both my RA and MS. Perhaps you can let me know how your experience went. Here's my profile onsite.
