C) 7.5mg daily? What is this, a prescription for a superhero? RA patients need a gentle touch, not a nuclear option.

B) 15mg once a week sounds about right. Gotta hit that arthritis hard, you know? But not too hard, or I might end up in the hospital instead of the doctor's office.

E) 22mg once a week? Is this some kind of joke? That's way too high for a starting dose!

D) 15mg daily? That's way too much! Methotrexate can be toxic in high doses, especially for RA patients.

That makes sense, but I still think starting with a lower dose like A) 7.5mg is safer for the patient.

A) 7.5mg once a week seems like the correct answer. Methotrexate is typically dosed weekly for RA, and the starting dose is usually around 7.5mg.

I disagree, I believe it's B) 15mg once a week because it's a higher dose for better efficacy.
