Rituximab or Remicade for Rheumatoid Arthritis RA

I have been on Remicade for the past 10 months. Started lower dose, but had to increase after 2 infusions as it was negligible in my system, so up to 10mg. Have done that for 3 infusions, getting set for 4th.
I have not had any side effects (knock on wood), and so far, so good; the inflammation is reducing a bit.

Thank you for sharing this valuable experience. If Remicade is prescribed to me, I would now consider starting with lower doses. Same for Rituxan - to be on the safe side.
