Il metotrexato o metotressato (conosciuto anche con il nome di ametopterina) è una molecola antagonista della sintesi dell'acido folico che influenza la risposta immunitaria dell'individuo. Come farmaco viene utilizzato nel trattamento di alcune neoplasie e patologie auto-immuni. Dalla molecola sono derivate altre sostanze inibitrici della diidrofolato reduttasi, tra cui trimetrexate.
