I had some flushing when I first started Tecfidera, but it was pretty mild. It would occasionally happen again if I didn't eat a full meal with the dose, but as long as I ate a full meal it wouldn't happen. But it is back now and I am very frustrated! I turn red like a lobster and my ears heat up. I'm not looking to take aspirin twice a day, so I am not sure if there is any other solution! It has happened for the past 5 or 6 days about 3 hours after taking it. Anyone had some luck with anything to help this from happening?

I don't know if this will help you but I know if I have caffeine soon after my medicine my flushing is much worse. I'm lucky to not turn red but I get so itchy that I almost can't function.
I think other foods can cause this too. I'm learning slowly what to have and not have. Maybe you added (or subtracted) something contributing to this. I know some people just start flushing again but maybe this will help. -
