Hello,

Folitrax is a brand name of methotrexate and it is not a steroid drug.
Methotrexate is not safe in pregnancy and prior to conception. You can also opt for safer alternatives.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
