Brief Answer:
Can be taken.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi, I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
There is interaction between Methotrexate and Corcidin HBP. However, Methotrexate causes liver dysfunction. So, in people with liver dysfunction, we need to avoid Acetaminophen.
So, you need to avoid the Corcidin HBP only in the case of liver dysfunction, otherwise this is absolutely safe.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any other query, you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
