Jackjosh I have yet to get any infusion site reactions or Ocrevus infusion reactions. I just received my last infusion (my third, counting the first two halves as one) in February. Hoping that your infusions go as well as mine, my friend. When you receive your next infusion, please post of your experiences if/when you can. :-D

I was on Tysabri (3yrs) and now on Ocrevus (1yr) and I have never had any infusion site reactions. Good luck.

Hi Jackjosh ...I haven’t had any site reactions to either Tysabri (5 years) or to Ocrevus. I’ve had the 2 half doses of Ocrevus plus 2 full doses. The protocol they use to administer Ocrevus is supposed to prevent reactions: Tylenol, Benedryl, Steroids.
