Vaccine

Anyone receiving the Rituxin treatment been vaccinated? If so, what was your experience?

My friend is on Rituxan and she has had both Moderna shots and she did ok, just alittle sore where the shot went in. 😊

On Ocrevus (similar to Rituxan). I had the Pfizer vaccine. No reaction after the first shot. But I had extreme weakness/fatigue after the second for about 24 hours. I slept all day and felt fine the next day.

I'm on rituxan. got pfizer... 1st ok 2nd got at 11:00 am felt off that day, next day could not walk or even stand long enough to brush my teeth. (I use walker or cane outside and often nothing inside). by 6:00 pm I could walk with walker and next day was just tired. take someone with you to get shot and don't plan anything for the next day just in case.

good luck!

I am on Mayzent and I had zero reaction after either Pfizer shot. nothing, not even a sore spot where the shot was given on my arm. My doc said he was researching and even tho we don't show as much response outwardly, that we do have some response to the vaccine. He also said that it is not as strong a response as a someone who is not on a DMT however. so there is that...
