When I switched from ctx to mtx, I was off all immunosuppressants for about 10 days with no ill effects. I have recently dropped from 17.5 mg to 15 mg/wk of mtx. It has helped with the side effect of fatigue on the day after the dose. My doctor says that 15 mg/wk is the minimum dose. Hope to have the discussion about getting off it altogether after the holidays.
