Guest guest Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 I am currently on MX as was told to take Folic Acid with the MX. I understood that the Folic was to help with any upset stomache problems that may be associated with using MX. I have been taking MX without the Folic and have felt fine without it. I was thinking at a latter time that maybe the folic maybe helps inhance the MX. Can Asprin or Ibprofin be taken at the same time as MX ??? Any Info before my next Rhemy date would be appreciated.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2003 Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 My rheumy told me the folic acid needed to be taken along with the MTX because the MTX depleated your body of folic acid. When I first began taking MTX I developed extremely painful mouth sores. Increasing my folic acid intake from 1mg per day to 2.5mg per day relieved the mouth sores and has kept them from retuning.
