What special precautions are there?
If you forget to give your pet his medication, give it to him as soon as possible. If the next dosage is approaching, skip the missing dose and resume your regular schedule. Contact your pet's veterinarian if you're not sure when to provide a missing dosage. It's critical that you give your pet this medication exactly as directed and that you don't stop giving it without first visiting your veterinarian. Your veterinarian may choose to monitor your pet for methotrexate-related toxicity by looking for indications of gastrointestinal discomfort. Lab tests such as liver function tests, renal function tests, and complete blood counts may also be performed. Several medicines can interact with methotrexate. Folic acid, cyclosporine, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among them. Before starting methotrexate, make sure you talk to your veterinarian about any herbal products, vitamins, or prescriptions you're giving your pet. Nursing or pregnant animals should avoid taking methotrexate due to the drug's nature and toxicity. It's crucial to keep human exposure to a minimum while providing methotrexate to your pet. After handling the medicine, put on gloves and wash your hands promptly. Wearing gloves is essential if you need to handle a damaged tablet or split a tablet. Keep out of the reach of animals and children.
