TECFIDERA may cause flushing.
TECFIDERA reported flushing, that was mostly mild to moderate in severity. On top of this, alternatively, administration of ‘nonenteric’ coated aspirin prior to dosing may reduce the incidence or severity of flushing. Consequently, taking TECFIDERA with food may reduce flushing. On top of that, encourage patients who become pregnant while taking TECFIDERA to enroll in the TECFIDERA pregnancy registry by calling 1 866 810 1462″ or visiting TECFIDERApregnancyregistry. Elevations in hepatic transaminases was reported. TECFIDERA could be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Three patients percent discontinued TECFIDERA for flushing and 1 had serious flushing events that led to hospitalization.
TECFIDERA may cause gastrointestinal events. How we think and feel about our lives and ourselves has an impact on our behavior and how we cope in tough times. Accordingly the incidence of serious GI events was 1. Four TECFIDERA percent patients and 1percentage of placebo patients discontinued due to GI events. Considering the above said. I am sure that the most common adverse reactions associated with TECFIDERA versus placebo are flushing and GI events. Now let me tell you something. Mental health affects us all.
In clinical trials there was a mean decrease of ∼30 in lymphocyte counts throughout the first year which remained stable, TECFIDERA may decrease lymphocyte counts.
Six TECFIDERA percent patients and 1 of placebo patients had lymphocyte counts 5×10/ TECFIDERA has not been studied in patients with preexisting low lymphocyte counts. Six TECFIDERA percent patients and 1percentage of placebo patients had lymphocyte counts 5×10/ TECFIDERA has not been studied in patients with preexisting low lymphocyte counts. Four weeks after stopping TECFIDERA, mean lymphocyte counts increased but not to baseline.
