Hi Mary,
Sometimes taking drugs really does do a job on the stomach. Be careful in following the directions whether the drug should be taken on an empty stomach or with a little bit of food. Protect that stomach lining.
I use methotrexate (which upsets some people's stomach also) but do not have any problems. Like Jeannette, I take it before bedtime and do not notice any side effects.
Don't be afraid to talk to your doctor and your pharmacist about the upset stomach. Perhaps he/she will have some suggestions for you.
