Ruxience active ingredients

Rituximab-pvvr is a man-made antibody that acts directly at specific points on certain white blood cells known as lymphocytes. Rituximab causes the white blood cell to disintegrate by breaking down the wall of the cell. The exact way in which rituximab does this is not fully understood.

Ruxience is given as an IV infusion directly into a vein. It is not given daily, and your dose will depend on the condition you are receiving treatment for.

You should call your doctor immediately if you experience speech, thought, vision, or muscle movement problems. These symptoms may start slowly but get worse quickly.
