I've been on Techfidera for many years. At my last neuro appt, he said because my numbers were "good" I could take a break from my meds. I kinda questioned this but ok. I had a consult with an ms specialist and she thought that might not be the best idea. So my neuro said I could get back on my meds. Ever since, I get flushed from my meds just occasionally. I take 81mg of aspirin daily for this (from when I first started Techfidera)
My body is still adjusting to the meds again from that… read more
Fortunately I found a foundation that approved a grant to pay for my monthly script. Well they pay for the generic dimethyl fumerate.
Look it up...Healthwell Foundation
Thank you. I know this will pass. I guess for me taking a nap also helps. 😊
I’ve been on Tecfidera for about 10 years. I found that taking a tablespoon of peanut butter or a few bites of pizza (cheese ) 10 minutes before I took the pill it resolved the flushing flushing is a known side effect of Tecfidera so it’s OK it’s just very uncomfortable, but at least it goes away for me. It was always gone in under 45 minutes And that was for 10 years. It might be different for different people.
Blessings! 🌸🌸
That's good cause that is crazy expensive
I have all my meds again, but the company is trying to get it authorized because I get it once a month for migraines and its a one shot pen it helps but at 900 bucks every month they don't like that
