Hello, folks. I have been suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for years. I started to use a new drug called Rituxan. Since I started with it, I have sensed a head pain. I wonder whether this is normal. What can you tell me about this? It would be even greater if it was from your own experience.
Hello. My mother suffers from rheumatoid arthritis as well. She was last year on Rituxan. She also experienced severe headaches. This drug can bring various side effects. My mother also felt dizziness, pain in her shoulder and vision problems. At the end, these symptoms bothered her so much that she complained to her rheumatologist. He changed her this medication. If the head pain is too much to deal with for your mother, then she should tell that to her rheumatologist. Maybe there is a better medication for her. I sincerely hope so.
