I'm currently taking Methotrexate 5mg and a contraceptive tablet. I'm wondering, how long should I continue these medications? Also, is it advisable to consider phototherapy as a treatment option?
Taking Oncotrex (methotrexate) 5mg with a contraceptive tablet is a common treatment regimen for conditions like psoriasis or rheumatoid arthritis; the duration of treatment varies depending on the condition and response, but typically ranges from a few months to several years; regarding phototherapy, it may be advisable in conjunction with methotrexate treatment, but this should be discussed with your doctor, as phototherapy can increase the risk of skin cancer and other side effects.
