I was Dx'd with RA the first of this year, and this is the first time I'm getting a cold since then. Just wondering what you guys that are on MTX take when you have a cold.

One thing NOT to take is the MTX. Anytime I had a cold my rheumy made me stop taking it. Robitussin was the only cough syrup my primary care doctor let me take.[QUOTE=midnitestich]One thing NOT to take is the MTX. Anytime I had a cold my rheumy made me stop taking it.

Yes, same here. I get sick real easily because of mtx. Whenever this happens, I go off my mtx for the week or so I am sick for.
