People in the US take folic acid every day, including MTX day, and they have no problems.

Yes! I've done this and not even realised till the following day, with no ill effects.

I inject in the evening so miss the next morning. There aren’t any contraindications with the two things it’s just that the body won’t absorb the folic acid in the 24 hours after injecting the mtx.

Thank you . I started the injection two weeks ago and what a difference to the sickness , I should of done it months ago no side effects what so ever . Next is the Biologics.

If you do well on MTX, your consultant might not think biologics are necessary. I take MTX and Leflunomide but no biologics.

My sickness is better but not my condition , I had both knees injected with steroids and it helps loads but unfortunately I can only have four a year and it will only last for three weeks but I’m a different person when I’m pain free , it feels amazing . , but I know in a couple of weeks it will be back to normal .
