Welcome RunningDownIBD, I too have a son that is on Remicade and MTX. He started with Remicade last year and we recently added the MTX. We are still trying to tweak the remi schedule. We are now down to five weeks.


C takes MTX(25mg) in the form of a pill. We set it up for Fridays because we were afraid of the nausea, flu-like symptoms the GI spoke. So(touch wood) he hasn't had any side effects with the MTX, we are on our 12th week. I may have just skipped over it accidently but are you guys taking folic acid with the MTX? C takes his daily and I've wondered if it has helped with not experiencing the side effects.


I hope Dylan's reaction continues to improve with the MTX and that he is feeling much better soon!
