I have been on Rituximab for 4 yrs now since stopping Tocilimab . I have an elderly adopted cat l have not experienced any problems from him passing to me or me to him. I have had nothing but good results from the 2 infusions six monthly l am also on 10mg of methotrexate injections weekly and a maintenance dose of 5mgm of prednisolone tabs daily forever. Some times we all worry about our drugs we are on but if we don't go forward and try new meds we will never get the benefits we need to live a better life without the pain and lessening of the effects that RA brings to us good luck with moving on with it

It's always good to hear from someone doing well on the treatment plan they are following. We so often only post when we're having problems and that tends to make people who are new to the management of the disease think that nothing works.

And glad to hear you and your cat are not exchanging infections.
