Rituxan (Rituximab) — Treatment consists of two infusions every six months.
Rituxan® is a medicine administered in combination with methotrexate to reduce signs and symptoms of RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis). It is used to slow the progression of structural damage in adult patients with moderately to severely active RA who have had an inadequate response to one or more TNF antagonist therapies. Only a qualified physician can decide if treatment with Rituxan (or other biologics) is appropriate for you. The doctors at AOA can determine if treatment with Rituxan is appropriate (for you) and administer the treatment in the AOA Infusion Center.
