Rituximab

I am starting this new medication in November.
I have been told that the first dose will take up to 6 hrs to be delivered into my system.
I have not been told whether I will need another 15 days later.
But have been told that I will get another dose every 6 months is this right?

I have never been on this one so I don't know what the answer is. The Orencia that I take only takes about 3/4 hour to be infused but I used to do Remacade and that was 4 hour infusion so it does depend.
