Guest guest Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 As a side note. I was supposed to start Remicade this week but they recently felt so strong about the correlation between it and Lymphoma they start labeling it as a possible side effect. My Father passed away from lymphoma 3 years ago so i decided to go back on Methotrexate. just thought you should know al the info. A lot of people get relief from it. but even if it's going to give me a 1% chance more ( probably more with genetics) I'm out. Good luck on Thursday Remacaide For those taking remicade How many mg do you take and how ofton do you receive the infusion. Please answer quickly as I have an appointmenttomorrow and Thursday.

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 hi judy , i recieve 500 milli ? not sure if liters or grams and i get my infusion once a month. if you are just starting you will be getting it every two weeks for a while and then 4 weeks and hopefully 6 weeks. make sure you get benedryl and tylenol at each infusion, because at any moment you could have an allergic reaction. hope this helps!!!
