Rheumatoid Arthritis And Metanx

I take Metanx as a supplement with Methotrexate for rheumatoid arthritis. Is Metanx necessary when taking Methotrexate?

Hello, Traci! How are you?

No, it's not really necessary. It is actually classified by the FDA as a medical food, basically it's a supplement that contains nutrients that are believed to support nerve health and function.

It's only typical side effect is nausea, due to the potency.

Are you having a problem with it?

Hello Verwon. Thank you for responding to my question. I am not having any problems with taking it. It is just very expensive! My prescription insurance doesn't cover it...30-day supply--$78.
