Yes, I often have to do that, my Rheumy says just don't put them in the same leg. I never use my tummy, but that should be OK too.Loretxx

I was told that you can't , due to 2 medications lowering your immunity, that u need to leave at least 24 hours between them.

Exactly what Case says. I was told just recently to leave a full 24 hours between MTX and a biologic.
