I take Methotrexate which is a DMARD. I am suffering from so much pain in my knees feet legs which I wait for surgery. Is is safe to take Naproxen which is a NSAID when you are takin a DMARD?

@MaggieOsteo you need to discuss this with your GP.
See this thread:
If he or she advises against it there are alternatives they can prescribe.
Best wishes

Hi, I think it would definitely depend on the dosage of methotrexate and the strength of naproxen. I know certain medications will increase the toxicity of methotrexate but speak to a pharmacist if you can't get any joy from your GP.
Best wishes.
