What is the alcohol limit for Methotrexate users ?
Or they should not take any alcohol with Methotrexate?? I have been taking Methotraxate for many years and sometimes I drink a glass of wine a week. Hope this does not affect liver so much...
Your not supposed to drink because meth can cause liver damage, and drinking speeds that up. But talk to your dr.,maybe a glass of wine every now and then is ok.

I was told the same, but in the same note a small glass of red wine is o.k. now and then, but not nightly, because of the Resvertol benefit. Had to give up my scotch, but I do fudge once a year and spend it on a good jigger. Hey, for a birthday one has to have something!

i was told by the specialist i could have 2 to three standard drinks per week while taking 10 mg mtx without serious side effects , i am on weekly treatments , but beware of blood alcohol concentrations when driving as i tested positive over .05 after having 3 drinks over a 2.5 hr period 1 night .i took the meds at 7 pm and was tested at 10.30 pm , i was tested again 7 days later and had not had any alcohol , the result .014 , so it has to be the mtx reacting to the alcotest machine.
