Constant Headache and Nausea from Medication

I have been having pretty much a constant headache lately it's not too severe sometimes worse than others. I feel like it's from the methotexteatè but I have no way of knowing that. I'm sure it could be from a lot of different things. I do know since they increased my dose from 6 to 8 pills a week I have nausea just on the morning after I take them tho and once I eat it goes away. this headache is really getting annoying tho.

If you feel nauseous take a zofran if you have it if not ask your doctor about zofran it should help the headache also

I second this! I always take zofran with my methotrexate. I haven’t had headaches from it though….I hope that goes away soon 💕

✋ I had headaches when I started methotrexate but not anymore. I had only 4 pills every Saturday and don’t eat 2 hours before or after medication. What helped me a lot is keep my mind busy and try to go out of bed even if I feel sick. Lots of love for you. Please talk to your doctor.

It’s hard to know where headaches stem from. Did you look the drug up for potential side effects?? Can you eat before you take your drug, to be a step ahead of it?? Perhaps you should let your Dr know about these headaches, maybe he/she can adjust your meds, if they think that is the cause. I live with headaches/ facial pain, and it can really suck the joy out of your day. Hugs.
