Oregon, OR

I am wondering if anyone has taken their dose on a different day for one week? We are planning a weekend trip and I want to feel my best but I usually take my Methotrexate Friday night. Any advice?

I agree with what was mentioned, ask your Dr. to on the safe side, we are all different and methotrexate works different in all of us.

You can go a day early or a couple of days late. When I am sick and on antibiotics, my doctor says I can hold my methotrexate for 2 weeks. Of course I have a couple of rough days when I start back but when you need to get over bronchitus, you do what you have to do. I adjusted my injection days when I took my granddaughter and her mom on their first Disney Cruise this past July. So I didn’t have to take it with me. And I didn’t have any problems! Good luck! And you may want to check with your doctor to be safe! ♥️

I’ve done that without any problem.

We are going on a cruise so I will take mine on Thursday instead of Friday. Then I’ll take a day later when we get back. Sometimes when we go away for a week I will skip it that week then I can have a couple of glasses of wine while I’m away. 😊

My RA doctor told me I could. I don’t do it often but sometimes you have to
