What happens when you stop taking methotrexate for ra?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on your RA -: Being controlled or not. Your symptoms might get worse. You should check with your rheumatologists as they might change it for some other medicine or if you are having side effects from the mtx, you may need some meds to counter those effects.
