Hi and welcome , like Jim I was on MTX 10 x 2.5 per week oral and was for 6 years but you must take the folic acid ,it worked great for me until the side effects got to much and then I went on to 20mg by injection for a further 3 years but eventually the side effects kicked in again and I had to stop. It is a good treatment if it suits you but like all treatments some work for you and some don't, we are all different . The other stuff you are using sounds like a sulfur based product and the tar based ones have been used for many years .
The thing with MTX is that you cannot drink alcohol and it knocks your resistance levels so if you have any bugs in your food ,which dairy products tend to have, stomach upsets are very easy to get which is the main problems anyway with MTX.
