Methotrexate Question

[Psyborg]

Just started this today. And I am to take 6 pills one day a week. But I'm not sure if I'm supposed to take all six at once or space them out, anyone have any input? I tried to call my doctor, but yet again got immediately put on hold and I'm starting to get really tired of that.

I took them all at once so unless otherwise advised, 'wang' them down your throat good buddy

[Psyborg]

Alrighty, that sounds like a plan

I took them all at once as well, but at night in case of stomach aches or nausea.

I also took mine all at once.

I was on 10 a week - taken together. I usually took them in the evening - for some reason I hated them with a passion! They subsequently failed me after about 9 months and I am back on Cyclophosphamide now - not sure which is worse!

I started with 8 pills per week. Took all at once. Tried for 2 weeks but stomachache and nausea was horrible, started injection the 3rd week. Good luck Psyborg!

I got all my drowsiness and some dizziness back with the MTX that was gone the last couple days after stopping CTX. Bummer Hopefully It'll be just the one day a week though.

I'm on 4 pills because of my liver. Had some tiredness and mild nausea at the beginnning, but now after 1 year all seems well. I have one more year to go. Take all at once Sunday morning.

Hi all from cold Meditarean Sea. Did well on two 4 1/2 hr tours but scared of a 9 1/2 hr Rome trip tomorrow because of my feet and hip.
