I had the same drugs by infusion. I had no serious side effects except for the week after infusion I felt bad and had little strength or energy. After the first three infusions this was reduced from a week to just a couple of days, The treatment worked! I am in remission which is the best I could hope for.

I was treated for NHL-mantle cell lymphoma for 4 months starting in July 2023. No side effects whatsoever. After first treatment I drove myself to and from the treatment facility. Did have slight constipation from the steroids that come along with the infusions. I learned to take stool softeners a few days before treatments. I ended up taking naps during my treatments. Now Iā€™m on Rituximab infusion only and still get a nap.

Best of luck to you!
