3/20/24 Rituximab for Non-Malignant Indications
March 20, 2024

Pharmacists,

 

Our ONC team put together a tip-sheet for rituximab for non-malignant indications as this comes up occasionally and pharmacists are often unsure what to do with it. I have linked that tip sheet on FormWeb on the rituximab page. I also added a sentence on there to clarify that these orders do not require a "chemo double check" and can be verified by any pharmacist. Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

 

Thanks,
