Yes, some myRAteam members have reported changes in their hair while taking Rituxan. One member specifically noted that after starting Rituxan, their hair started growing in "super curly," indicating that the medication can affect hair texture.

It's important to note that you may not notice improvements in your RA symptoms until 3 months or more after Rituxan treatment, and the effects can last 6-12 months or longer. If you're experiencing concerning changes in your hair or skin, it's recommended to discuss these changes with your healthcare provider. They can evaluate whether adjustments to your treatment plan are needed and may suggest supportive measures to help manage any side effects.
