methotrexate

hiya everyone,im currently taken methotrexate which ive been on for roughly six weeks,four weeks on six tablets and 2 weeks on 10 tablets!!
my question is how long does it take to work or is it like everything else ive tried and should of started working by now???
 
If it is going to work it can take up to 8 weeks and make sure you take Folic Acid with it. The tablets may not be as good as injections, so could take longer.

thanks for your reply,yes ive been told to take my folic acid tablet the day after taking my dose of ten tablets!!!
 
Hi Lollypop

Im starting mine next friday by injection, I was told to take mine three days before the injection
hiya, maybe the injection works in a different way to the tablets as my specialist defo said to take the folic acid the day after!!
