I have been injecting Rasuvo ( methotrexate injectable) little to no side effects I'm up and running by 2pm next day. Mild nausea, but i drink ginger tea and take a sleep aid.

Now I'm on Otrexup injection also methotrexate, less side effects and I'm also on Humira no side effects

I hope all went well with your first MTX dose. Take it easy, don't do too much, get plenty of rest. Make sure to eat a good meal with each dose. I am seeking any and all holistic remedies so thank you for the link. Let us know how you are doing. Take care, Penny
