hello everyone
I have had a cough for about 8 weeks, and the gp put me on antibiotics and 10 days of oral predisoline. I managed to stop coughing but when finished with tablets the cough came back. I had a chest xray and it was clear. I was on 12.5 methotrexate and its been reduced to 10mg Can anyone tell me if lowering the dose back down to 10mg which i had been taking before and didnt have a cough then will stop me coughing, only this cough is wearing me out big time and can methotrexate cause inflammation in the sinuses.

Hi Sue,

I don't really know the answer to that but since I been on sulfa I have coughed and got an endless cold so personally I think its linked to the lowering of the immune system.

I really hope it will clear up for you soon. Cris x
