Guest guest Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 has anyone tried rituxan for Ra? I have RA, thryoid disease, and ITP (Idiopathic thrombocytopenia pupura) its a blood disorder (low platelets) my hemo put me on rituxan and I have just had my 6th treatment. I have 2 more to go. It doesn't seem to be doing alot for the itp but let me tell you I have absolutly no pain whatsoever from my ra. Just curious to see if anyone has used it and once the treatment was over did the pain come back? how long does the treatment last? I was getting cortizone shots in my elbow but was lucky to get 3-4 weeks out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
