I’ve had the first 3 doses without any problems. 😀

The burning sensation at the injection site is from not letting the alcohol from the pad dry completely.

I started Kisempta in May. My neurologist had me premed prior to the first 3 injections. I took 1000mg tylenol, 10 mg pepcid and 10 mg zyrtec. I took them the day before the injection, day of the injection and day after. He also said to push your fluid intake on those days too ( something with electrolyes) I used smart water and liquid IV- powdered electrolyte mix you can get from Walgreens. Increasing your fluids helps rid your body of those b cells being lysed. I feel this was very helpful in minimizing side effects. Good luck!!

I usually get tired the day of, but I attribute that more to the prophylactic Benadryl that I was advised to take one hour before my injection. Kesimpta has really helped to give me at least a couple of good days each month.

I've been on Kesimpta since March and it has helped me tremendously. I don't take any pain meds before injections and only use something if I have a dull headache.
