Are Birth Control Pills Advisable While On Folitrax For Rheumatoid Arthritis?

Hi I have RA for which I am on Folitrax (weekly) and folic acid, HCQS. I was advised that I should not think of conceiving when on Folitrax... So no plans of doing that yet. I wanted to know if I can use any birth control pill while on Folitrax? Thanks S
