Inspiring RA Stories![]() Meet our RISE Ambassadors and hear their inspiring stories about living and thriving with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). See how their lives were affected by RA, how they found their current treatment, Rituxan® (rituximab), and how they've gotten back to doing the things they love to do.
It's important to know that Rituxan is used to treat adults with moderate to severe RA who have not been helped enough by an anti-TNF treatment. People with serious infections should not receive Rituxan. Keep in mind that there are a lot of key factors to consider when choosing a treatment, including the potential benefits and risks. Be sure to discuss them with your doctor and review the Rituxan Medication Guide for more information.
In studies, more than half of the people taking Rituxan experienced a clinically significant improvement in RA signs and symptoms (ACR 20 response). Please ask your doctor for more information. Individual results may vary.
Rituxan has been associated with infusion reactions, tumor lysis syndrome, severe skin reactions, and serious infections, including progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Common side effects include infections and infusion reactions.
