[|AI|]  Hello Led Prakash. Thanks for sharing your query here. Topicals in the form of Proposal ointment can be used if involvement is up to a certain percentage of body area by Psoriasis. Beyond a specific limit, you will need oral /injectable therapy which unfortunately has the potential if side effects, if not monitored closely. For a chronic condition like psoriasis, treatment regimen is modified according to the severity of disease, which might be different in different times of the year. So, a close follow-up with your dermatologist is important for optimum result and achieving a remission. For the methotrexate that you are using, side effects like nausea and vomiting may be dose-dependent. Therefore, several physicians consider adjusting the dose or modifying the mode of intake to eliminate the problem. The total dose of Methotrexate can be divided & taken over 2 days every week; or you may take it at bedtime, if taking during the day causes nausea; it can also be taken after food, instead of before. Still if nausea persists, you may consider switching over to injectable Methotrexate once a week. Several other Chat Doctor. I would advise you to discuss these with your dermatologist and continue the therapy. Hope the is helpfulTake care!
