The side effect of methotrexate can last for months which is horrible once ur body gets used to the meds u should have no problems after that I have been on it for a long time xx

Initially I freaked out with hair loss but I have a lot of hair thank goodness You HAVE to take Folic Acid but I have the MTHFR gene so I have to take 15mg of Methylfolate which can be prescribed by your doctor or you can get it on Amazon. You want 15 mg... I also take 10,000 mcg of BIOTIN. You can also invest in a laser cap for hair loss which I also did (about $600) and there is also Visceral Capsules you can get from the pharmacy which is for hair loss. Since taking the Methylfolate 15 mg - I notice a decrease in my hair loss. There is also prescription strength Minoxydil (stronger than Rogaine) and you can have your dermatologist or doctor prescribe it for you If you need info, just contact me and I can give you the info for you to pass on to your doctor. good Luck

I have had loss ,that was hard. My hair is no longer beautiful;(

Hang in there, some DMARDs take time to work, between 3 to 6 months. All we can do is just take pain medication until the treatments start working

There are side effects of Methotrexate. I took this medication for about 7 years. I Initially felt tired with flu like symptoms and also nausea. These symptoms eventually went away after 6 or 9 months of taking it. Let your Doctor know if this persist or if you can’t tolerate it though, only you know how much you can tolerate.
