I waiting for my meds. folic acid, methotrexate, prednisone I was told to take the folic acid every day but I have read that folic acid will lessen the methotrexate on the day you take it. Do you skip he folic acid or his not talk it togther?

Take it with the metho and I always took it at night so I could sleep through the nausea. The folic acid just helps with the hair loss you might experience.
Many metho works for...but, many it doesn't. I was the latter. Good luck!

Take it every day. It is to help strengthen your immune system so you won't get too weak.
