Stopping mtx due to being neutropenic.
I have a number of meds, including a mtx injection - 20ml (
metoject
pen) and Cimzia (a biologic in a pen form.) Iver Christmas, I had to stop my mtx as I became neutropenic and some other of my blood results were either too high or too low.

White tongue
Hi I am on Humira and
Metoject
. 2 weeks ago I'd the flu jab ever since my IBS is bad and my mouth is covered inside my lips with cold sores, so I looked inside and to my horror my tongue was heavily coated in yellowy white and mouth ulcers.

Hello Everyone, Five weeks ago I started on
Metoject
which is going ok. I'm going aboard soon and have to take one with me any ideas on how to take them? And any ideas on how you bring a used one back. I just wondered how others do this.

There’s no such thing as a random question.......
Anyway back on track, I now have to carry a card with me to show that I take methotrexate (
metoject
pen) because obviously the drug suppresses my immune system. Anyway after lots of chatting and getting my medication, folic acid and sharp boxes (with purple lids) I was sent on my way.

Does anyone know the different brand names for subcutaneous methotrexate?
I currently take
Metoject
methotrexate, and he said that there is another brand, and sometimes people react differently to the two, that switching might help my side effects. Trouble is, I can't remember the name of the other brand!

New rheummy and med changes
Hi guys new rheummy want to increase
metoject
back up to 15 and add hydroxy next. I already failed on Sulfa and leflunomide. Currently changing antisickness drug due to guidelines on long term use of Domperidone so gutted as it worked fairly well - I was nauseous but not vomiting all the time!

Change from metoject MTX injections to methofill?
Hi I collected a repeat prescription for my MTX injections yesterday and instead of the
Metoject
auto injectors I had before, I was given Methofill which the pharmacist says is a new brand. (Presumably cheaper.)

Switching over to Metoject Pens
I switched over to
Metoject
prefilled pens 20mg from tablets this week and injected for be first time Thursday. On Friday everything I ate tasted funny, all the things I would usually like had an earth like taste! Has anyone else found this? Could it be due to the injections?

Metoject + Common Colds
Here's the question: I've been on
metoject
for about a month now, and just last week I had a checkup to correct the dosage. At that time my rheumy warned me to not take
metoject
if I fall ill at any point, and with that we parted till June.

Purple rash/blotches
Stopped taking the tabs and started with the
metoject
pen instead but now the thought of doing the jabs is making me feel as sick as I felt with the tabs. I can't stand it any longer. I'd rather be in pain than feel sick. I don't want to take anything.

Dizziness??
They then put me on
metoject
, I'm also on 5mg folic acid per day. I was slightly dizzy after the tablets last week, this week I'm now feeling worse with the injection.. Should I give it time for my body to adjust? Has this happened to anyone else on methotrexate? Would appreciate advice

RA not under control yet...anyone else?
Now using
Metoject
. Symptoms have snowballed over the year with not much respite. Feel so worn down by it now and finlly had to be off work sick these past few weeks after months of trying to hold on. Cons wants to add hydroxy in but bit reluctant though think I may need to go with it now.
