Re: Question about Meds...

,

Methotrexate causes you to be sensitive to sunlight. It will cause your skin

to burn easily and feel prickily. What SPF number of sunblock are you using ????

I know my doctors recommend SPF50 for people on MTX. I hope this help.

Question about Meds...

I was wondering if anybody on metrotrexate, does anybody have a

problem being out in the sun. When I go outside and stand in the

sunlight for even 5 mins, I begin to feel like my skin is being poked

with little needles, I have even tried sunblock and that doesn't even

help. I was wondering if anybody else experiences these same problems

I do.
