Yes, taking medications such as Acitren (acitretin) and Metex (methotrexate) is a contraindication to donating blood.

Acitren is a medicine used to treat psoriasis, and methotrexate is used to treat autoimmune diseases and cancer. Both drugs can affect the bone marrow, liver function, and immune system, which increases the risk of complications after a transfusion. For this reason, people taking these drugs should wait to donate blood for at least a few months after the end of therapy, as recommended by their doctor.
