    In a sense, your dentist is right. Methotrexate is a very powerful drug. A patient taking it should be under the care of a rheumatologist and have periodic lab work.

    Both hypertension & diabetes can cause decreased kidney function. Question your rheumatologist about methotrexae & your kidneys.

    Having said this, it has helped a large number of arthritis (RA & other) patients.
