Rituxem 500mg Injection contains rituximab, a monoclonal antibody medicine used in the treatment of certain blood cancers such as non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. It is also used in some autoimmune conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, granulomatosis with polyangiitis, microscopic polyangiitis and pemphigus vulgaris, as advised by the doctor. It works by targeting and reducing specific white blood cells called B lymphocytes that are involved in cancer growth or abnormal immune responses. Your doctor will explain why it is suitable for you.

Rituxem 500mg Injection is given by a healthcare professional as an intravenous infusion into a vein, usually in a hospital or clinical setting. It should not be self-administered. Your doctor will decide the correct dose, infusion rate, schedule and duration based on your condition and response to treatment.

Common side effects may include infusion-related reactions such as fever, chills, headache, nausea, vomiting, rash, weakness and fatigue. This medicine may lower blood cell counts, increasing the risk of infections. Serious side effects can include severe allergic reactions, heart-related problems, reactivation of hepatitis B infection and rare brain infections.
