Hi Naushad,

I am on Remicade and have been for 2 years. I started off with the dosing at 2 weeks as well and then went to every 6 weeks. There is different dosing if the Dr. doesn't feel you are getting enough. I have been increased once. They do weight you every time. I sit for 3 hours. They start by giving me a Tylenol and some Benedryl (Antihistimine) then they give me an I.V. of steroid. Then I start the Remicade and it takes about 3 hours each time.

Remicade as well as the other Biologics does not cure this disease. It slows the progression. For me, it has helped curve the amount of times that I have had to deal with Uveitis.

I hope this helps.
