Anyone taking methotrexate, should double up on folic acid. A good rheumatoid Dr would advise this & I haven't heard of any mentions of this. Very vital & yes, it WILL help w/hair loss. Plus, a bonus, it's great for your brain. It helps w/depression & prevention of Alzheimers.

It didn’t for me , the only thing I’ve had issues with which my hairdresser pointed out, colours don’t always take when covering grey hair. I’m not sure if it’s the amitriperline or the methotrexate has I’m not on biologics now.

Hi. I'm on Methotrexate injections and Sulfasalazine. My hair has thinned but seems to be settling now. I have long hair so might be more aware of it.

I am on the biological Simponi every three weeks and a weekly injection of methotrexate, my hair has actually gotten thicker and now has waves and curls. I think it may be different depending on a persons other health conditions and meds, but I’ve had no unusual hair loss at all.
