Hi,

Anyone got advice on RITUXAN Infusion / Injections.

I have Lupus and Sjogrens not have any success with medications.

Medication sensitive last two meds Methotrexate health deteriorate over 8 months. Imuran caused liver problems just out of hospital.

Taken off Imuran and Mepacrine. Due to see consultant tomorrow to discuss RITUXAN as Lupus and Sjogrens symptoms getting worse .

Any advice.

Many thanks.
