How long does the individual infusion last?

lemtrada infusion
It takes first year 5 day infusion, about 6 hours each day.
Second year 3 day infusion. Then that's it. No more pills/shots.
Good stuff, stopped all my active lesions the first year! They have not been active since. 4+ years now.
Be as healthy as you can before you go in and take the pre-meds for sure. -

campath
I was on Rebif for 3 years before the campath.
Pre-meds are like anti acid pills, anti fungal, and some others. I'll try to find my notes of exact meds and post them here. I'd tend to think some peoples bodies may freak out a little, but just remember to go with the flow and know it'll be over and it puts you on a good path ahead. But remember the lesions in the brain are still there, they just become inactive. Which I think is a very good thing to do.Comment
