I took Xolair for 10 years and besides arm soreness, had no bad side effects. It helped reduce or eliminate my need for prednisone several times a year and helped control my allergies too. The only downside was that it was time consuming - had to get 3 shots every two weeks in the office.
I've been on Xolair for almost three years with zero side effects. It's a very safe well-tolerated drug that has been on the market for almost 20 years. Try not to worry too much and just see how it goes! It is a game-changer for a lot of people. For me, it's helped me be on prednisone a lot less often.
