I am being diagnosed with pemphigus vulgaris for last 3 months now. And I have been on steroids like omnacortil for last 3 months. Can you please brief me about rituximab injections? Should I go for it?

Pemphigus vulgaris is an auto immune disease and we can control it but not cure it fully and you are already taking omnocortil and if you are having more unwanted symptoms than rheumatologist decides whether an extra medication of rituximab needs to be given or not.
