I also have a great deal of information regarding folic acid and taking MTX which doesn't appear to be covered at all.
Interesting they haven't mentioned anything about regular monitoring of the the patients blood. When I went on it there were a couple of cases where patients had died from liver failure where it had been prescribed by a GP and they failed to follow up with blood monitoring.

It does in the information that I got which was a good few years ago now.
