I've been on tecfidera for a little more than two weeks. I have been eating a jimmy dean sausage egg and cheese croissant for breakfast. I take the tecfidera with breakfast. What else will work to stop the flushing? I have only flushed once but I take baby aspirin 30 minutes before eating the sausage and taking the pill. Im concerned with eating the sausage every morning. I never ate breakfast before. What does everyone else eat for breakfast?

For me, a piece of toast with peanut butter is enough. I have read others here say they needed a full meal to avoid s/e.
My new favorite quick meal is a fried egg on top of a piece of toast that was slathered with real butter - yummy & fast!DX 10/2008

tecfidera
I always have peanut butter on a waffle with blueberries. Three weeks ago I decided to try eating a less fatty breakfast. Was having oatmeal made with water. Essentially no fat. Started having lots of trouble with acid reflux. Back on the peanut butter again. Taking sometime to feel better. Definitely recommend peanut butter. Been on Tecfidera since July 2014.

Try it for a few days without food to see if you need it.
I take no aspirin or food, i eat about an hour later.
I get more flushing from the 1gram of niacin i take with breakfast than the tecfidera and I can usually ignore that for the short duration it lasts. actually I like it now that it is cold out1995-symptoms with no cause
