Methotrexate dosage 2.5mg once weekly
Posted , 2 users are following.
I will start taking Methotrexate 3 tablets (2.5mg) once per week. My doctor told me to pick a day of the week. So I will start on Saturday. I will also be taking folic acid (1 mg) on the alternate days.
This will be my 3rd medications. So far, I have taken Azathioprine, Azulfidine and Leflunomide. All of them made my stomach hurt, and Azulfidine made me vomit.
I have a very sensitive stomach. I was thinking about dividing the tablets up during the day on Saturday. Maybe, like taking one tablet around 8am, and another tablet around 3pm and the last one around 10pm. Do anyone take a divided dose in the same day?

My doctor don't want me to increase the dose. He just wants me to do the 3 pills weekly. I am also taking another drug by the name of Medrol on a daily basis. Medrol have completely stop all the pain but it is not helping with the inflammation.
Sometimes I feel like this is too much drugs. My Mom wants me to go see another doctor for a second opinion.
