    My neuro had slated me for 1 month @ 120 mg before starting the maintenance dose of 240 mg BID. Due to some pharmacy/quick start/insurance issues I am spending 6 weeks on 120 mg and then going to 240.

    Well, the flushing has subsided the past several days just like Biogen and others stated it would. It might come back when I start the maintenance dose (next week), but I am very glad my body is getting used to the medication.

    This really is GREAT news considering how poorly I did on other DMTs (and a number of other medications).

      If insurance allows , Oh yes. If I used the Betaseron chart without adjusting , I would hit bone. Besides , I'm an old man , whom better to try something new ?

        I failed Gilenya after about a year. 2 new brain stem lesions and a possible third in the making. Will be starting Tec once approved by insurance co.
