Methotrexate interferes with the production of DNA in rapidly growing cells, slowing their growth. It also reduces immune system activity, which helps in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis by lowering inflammation.

Take Methotrexate tablets exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually once a week. Swallow whole with water, preferably after food. Do not crush or chew the tablet. Follow your doctor’s schedule to avoid serious side effects.
