Methotrexate is a medication primarily used to treat certain cancers, such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, as well as severe psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis. In children, it is also effective for polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA) when other treatments have not been successful. As an antimetabolite, methotrexate works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells and suppressing the immune system to prevent it from attacking healthy tissues. This action helps to reduce joint damage and maintain joint function, particularly in the early stages of rheumatoid arthritis. Methotrexate for pediatric use is available as an oral solution, taken once a week, with dosage varying based on whether it's used for cancer or non-cancer conditions. Common side effects may include nausea and reduced blood cell counts. Always consult a healthcare professional for medical advice tailored to personal health conditions.
