Additionally, it is used for psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, and severe, active, juvenile idiopathic arthritis.

✔️ Pharmacology


Mechanism of Action of Methotrexate:

Folic Acid Antagonist:

  • Methotrexate acts as an antagonist to folic acid.

Inhibition of DNA Synthesis:

  • It inhibits DNA synthesis, a crucial process for cell division and growth.

Binding to Dihydrofolate Reductase:

  • Methotrexate irreversibly binds to dihydrofolate reductase.

Inhibition of Reduced Folate Formation:

  • This binding prevents the formation of reduced folates.

Inhibition of Thymidylate Synthetase:

  • Methotrexate also inhibits thymidylate synthetase.

Resulting in Synthesis Inhibition:

  • The inhibition of dihydrofolate reductase and thymidylate synthetase leads to a cascade effect.
  • This cascade results in the inhibition of purine and thymidylic acid synthesis, crucial components for DNA replication.

Irreversible Binding:

  • The binding of Methotrexate to these enzymes is irreversible.

By disrupting these essential processes, Methotrexate exerts its anti-tumor and immunosuppressive effects, making it effective in the treatment of various conditions, including cancer and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis.

✔️ Dosage & Administration:
  • Take as advised by your physician with water.
  • Do not crush or chew; dosage depends on age, weight, and condition.
