Methotrexate | Fast
Escrow Refills
Methotrexate interferes with
the growth of certain cells of the body, especially cells that reproduce
quickly, such as cancer cells, bone marrow cells, and skin cells.
Methotrexate is used to treat certain types of cancer of the
breast, skin, head and neck, or lung. It is also used to treat severe psoriasis
and rheumatoid arthritis.
Methotrexate is usually given after other medications have been
tried without successful treatment of symptoms.
Methotrexate is usually taken once or twice per week and not
every day. You must use the correct dose for your condition. Some people have
died after taking methotrexate every day by accident.
Do not use methotrexate to treat psoriasis or rheumatoid
arthritis if you have liver disease (especially if caused by alcoholism), or a
blood cell or bone marrow disorder
Methotrexate can lower blood cells that help your body fight
infections and help your blood to clot. You may get an infection or bleed more
easily. Call your doctor if you have unusual bruising or bleeding, or signs of
infection (fever, chills, body aches).
Methotrexate can cause serious or life-threatening side effects
on your liver, lungs, or kidneys. Tell your doctor if you have upper stomach
pain, loss of appetite, dark urine, clay-colored stools, jaundice (yellowing of
the skin or eyes), dry cough, shortness of breath, blood in your urine, or
little or no urinating.
