“In the case of drugs with long dosing intervals such as
rituximab
, there are some circumstances where it may be beneficial to time the vaccine around when the last dose was given to maximize the vaccine’s efficacy.

Australian current treatment legislation
Is it correct that in Australia currently for a SLL /CLL patient, if you are NOT 17p del but still unmutated igvh and mutated tp53 ( meaning FCR is unlikely to be effective) , you will still need to go through FCR before having an option like ventoclax or or a BTK inhibitor?

What to Know About Getting the Second COVID-19 Vaccine Dose If You’re Immunocompromised or Have an Autoimmune Condition
They also made other recommendations about timing when you get the COVID-19 vaccine in the course of treatment with biologics
rituximab
(Rituxan) and abatacept (Orencia). However, the guidance says that patients should not stop taking most medications before or after getting the vaccine.

Rituximab
advice about timings. His department are releasing guidelines very soon.

Should You Get the COVID-19 Vaccine If You Have a History of Allergic Reactions to Infused or Injectable Medications?
Two common biologics to be aware of are infliximab (Remicade) and
rituximab
(Rituxan). Infliximab (Remicade) is a commonly prescribed biologic that can cause allergic reactions in some patients.

Living in the USA with CLL and want to know where to sign up for your COVID-19 Vaccination? A State-by-State List
If you are in treatment, or have had treatment with
Rituximab
, Obinutuzumab, Ofatumumab or other anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies within the past 6 months, you are less likely to produce an antibody response to a vaccination, but it is expected that you will still develop some T-cell based immunity response

Covid vaccine effectiveness and rituximab
I just came across this MS-related blog: https://multiple-sclerosis-research.org/2020/06/the-mscovid-19-vacccination-window-of-ocrelizumab-
rituximab
-and-more-evidence-for-the-importance-of-memory-b-cells/ It's quite technical and contains links to related papers.

Wish the doctors would listen
Treated with
Rituximab
, Methotrexate and Prednisolone routinely and have developed Hypogammaglobulinaemia induced by the
Rituximab
so am susceptible to infections. My argument is that we know our own bodies and we should be listened to and heard.

Ageing pet’s effect on my health
Our son has come home for a visit and is appalled at the smell of our old dog. She is incontinent and wears nappies or lies on sheets I change several times a day. She insists on sleeping in our room at night, or barks all night long. I love her dearly, but I have noticed I cough a lot when I get up

Wegners disease and kidney function
I'm now having a 2nd session
rituximab
and seen less urine flow which means I'm now on more fluid restriction. I'm hoping it's the meds. I have read that some Wenger's disease sufferers can see some or all kidney function restored over 6 plus months of renal failure.
