@donnyboy Well, I’ve only had 1 infusion so far. Usual is to gives 2 doses 2 weeks apart and then repeat every 6 months. I had all that about 5 years ago and then had to stop rituxan. My next dose is Aug 7. I’m also on CellCept, which is a steroid sparing drug, does all the same as steroids without the bad side effects. And, no, I didn’t need to stop steroids to start rituxan. I’v had a real problem stopping them. The infusion usually takes about 3 hours because i ask the nurses to go slow. I have an article on rituxan that I’ll try to find.
