prednisone just for short period of time to get bad RA flare under control.

Hello, I am currently on Methotrexate injection 25mg, it stopped working for me. It can take time before the medication works, I was told by my doctor that it can take 6mths to a year for some people to start feeling the effects of the medication. Best thing you can do is consult with your doctor. Hope you feel better soon!

Give the meds a chance sometimes they take 6 to 8 week to work. If you continue to have problems contact your Dr. Methotrexate didn't work for me. But we are all a little different. I've had pretty good luck with enbrel and lefonomide ( arava). Prayers for you.

They put me on 3 tabs of 20 mg prednisone for three days, then 2 for 3 days and then 1 for 3 days. I'm on my third day and Sooo wired. My rheumatologist just increased my methotrexate. I am now taking 6 tabs of 2.5 mg once a week. I hope it works. I just need to give it a little more time. Thank you.
