Help Experience with Sotrovimab for COVID

I have well-controlled RRMS I recently tested positive for COVID and have had a few rough days but seem to be getting better Ive just been offered Sotrovimab a biological medicine for Covid. It's a neutralising monoclonal antibody - a man-made synthetic protein that mimics human antibodies. These stick to the protein of the coronavirus and neutralise it. This prevents them from taking hold of the lung. It will protect me from CV for 4 weeks but might inhibit further vaccination response )the NHS page is really unclear about this). Tecfidera may already inhibit vaccine effectiveness. Has anyone had experience with this drug or been given medical advice related to it? MS nurse if off so no input there. I will raise with Dr tomorrow but wondered about community experiences.

Is this the infusion one? If so I had it and had no side effects whatsoever. I have well managed RRMS too

It was the infusion - I didn't take it in the end. It protects from CV for 4 weeks but you shouldn't have another injection until at least 4 weeks after as it limits vaccine efficacy for a month. Thanks for the feedback.
