Comment:
Was on pills for 2 years and now on injections for almost 1 year. The usual minor side effects with both pill/injections, but I feel great and have been pain free the entire time I've been on this. Have had to increase my folic acid due to mouth sores. Have found that taking Biotin daily really helps with the hair thinning/loss! Take care all!

Comment:
I took the methotrexate pill form but had too many problems with stomach up sets, my dr. turned me over to injections which was very easy to use and quite painless.. but.. now my dr. is changing me to Hummara(sp) since even after 2x's of upping the doseage it doesn't seem to be effective. I've been taking it for almost 1 1/2 years (injection)

Comment:
I started by taking it orally but it upset my stomach. My docter asked me if I could inject myself instead and I have tolerated it much better.
