They both work the same way , both b cell depleters but given I’m 2 completely different ways . O is a 6 monthly infusion and a day In hospital , pumped full of steroids & antihistamines beforehand to minimise a reaction to the initial infusion . K is a once a month epi pen like jab you do at home yourself with nothing to take beforehand . You’ll need 3 Initial loading doses with K once a week for 3 weeks , miss a week , then week 4 is the start of the monthlies . I’m on K it’s so easy and convenient to do . Because they both work the same way you’ve just got to work out what will fit into your routine better . They are both top efficiency treatments . Good luck ❤️
