Good morning
My husband is being treated for psoriasis by taking Metex 25mg/1xtyd, my question is when we could try to get pregnant if he stopped? Is there any risk of fetal harm if my husband is taking this type of medication?

Metex (methotrexate) is a drug that can cause serious foetal malformations, so a man should stop using it at least 3-6 months before trying for a baby.
It is also recommended to use effective contraception during therapy. It is important to consult your doctor before deciding to try for pregnancy, who will assess your individual health situation and the risks associated with treatment.
The availability of Metex in pharmacies in Polish can be checked at the following address:
