Hello. Has Anyone Here Ever NOT Had Maintenence Rituximab After Finishing Their Treatments? I Keep Hearing Of Bad Side Effects And Problems
I am being treated for MCL. Also getting bendamustine IV
Been on Rituxin for years. Did not notice any side effects except a little fatigue. It helped my cancer stay away.
I was on Rituxin maintenance off and on for over 10 years for my Mantle Cell Lymphoma; no major side effects- a little fatigue.
Am now on Brukinsa an immunotherapy chemo pill which is working well.
Good Luck!🌺
Yes, the decision to change or stop a medication is up to the patient and their doctor. Risk versus Benefit or. Write a list of pros and cons.
I took one dose of Rituxan 25 years ago after I asked for it.
Then after 16 years of remission, I am glad I had Rituxan!
Then I took 2 years of every two months Rituxan and had diarrhea that had me ask to stop it. That was against Dr.s recommendation. I am fortunate to still be in remission 51/2 years later
LauraVanCott,
Hi! I have/had DLBCL stage IV and had treatments of RCHOP chemo. I was never offered maintenance rituxin. Kelly
