What is Tecfidera?

Tecfidera (dimethyl fumarate) is an oral capsule used to treat certain forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) in adults.

MS is a condition where the immune system attacks the protective layer around nerves, which can cause problems with walking, seeing, and thinking.

Tecfidera helps lower the chances of having flare-ups, also called relapses, by almost half over two years. It also slows down how quickly the condition gets worse.

Tecfidera is used to treat several types of multiple sclerosis in adults. These include clinically isolated syndrome (CIS), which is the first episode of MS-like symptoms; relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), where symptoms come and go; and active secondary progressive MS (SPMS), which slowly gets worse over time. These are the main uses of Tecfidera.

Tecfidera is sometimes used off-label to treat MS and plaque psoriasis, which causes red, scaly patches.

Tecfidera has a generic version called dimethyl fumarate. Before taking it, people should learn about Tecfidera contraindications.

These include severe allergic reactions, low white blood cell counts, and some infections. Always talk to a healthcare provider to see if Tecfidera is safe for your condition.

How Does Tecfidera Work?

Tecfidera helps the body protect its nerves from damage. In multiple sclerosis (MS) and clinically isolated syndrome (CIS), the immune system gets confused and attacks healthy nerve cells, causing swelling and harm to the nerves.

Tecfidera helps the body make a special protein called Nrf2. This protein helps balance the body’s molecules and reduce damage from swelling and harmful molecules called oxidative stress.

Tecfidera also changes how some immune cells work, making them less likely to attack the nerves. It starts working right away, but it can take a few weeks before you notice its full effect.

Tecfidera Dose Information and Usage

Tecfidera comes as delayed-release capsules in two strengths: 120 mg and 240 mg. It is usually taken by mouth twice a day.

Tecfidera dosing starts with a lower dose and then increases after one week. How you take Tecfidera depends on the condition being treated and how well you tolerate it.

Dosage Form and Strengths of Tecfidera

  • 120 mg
  • 240 mg

How is Tecfidera Administered?

When starting Tecfidera, the usual dose is 120 mg twice daily for the first 7 days.

After this, the dose increases to 240 mg twice daily, the regular dose to keep taking. If side effects are too strong, your doctor may temporarily lower the dose to 120 mg twice daily.

After a few weeks, the higher dose should be started again. Always take Tecfidera with food to help reduce side effects like flushing. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next one.

Do not take two doses at once. Tecfidera is meant to be taken long term, so follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.

If you are pregnant or planning to get pregnant, talk to your doctor about Tecfidera during pregnancy.

Your doctor can help decide if it is safe for you.

Tecfidera Overdose

Taking too much Tecfidera can cause serious side effects. Signs of Tecfidera overdose include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, rash, flushing, upset stomach, and headache. If you think you have taken too much, seek medical help right away.

Warnings and Precautions for Tecfidera

Before you start taking Tecfidera, it is important to know that this medication can cause serious health problems in some people.

Before using the medication, you should discuss any health issues with your doctor. This helps ensure that the medication is safe for you.

  • Tecfidera can cause a severe allergic reaction. This can happen the first time you take it or even later. You may have trouble breathing, swelling of your tongue or throat, or hives. If this happens, stop taking Tecfidera and get medical help right away.
  • Tecfidera may cause a brain infection called PML. This severe infection can cause death or disability. It happens more in people with a weak immune system. If you feel weak on one side of your body or have trouble seeing, thinking, or remembering things, stop the medication and see a doctor right away.
  • Tecfidera can increase the risk of shingles and other serious infections. These infections may affect your brain, spine, stomach, lungs, skin, or eyes. Tell your doctor immediately if you have signs of infection like fever, rash, headache, or confusion.
  • Tecfidera can lower the number of white blood cells in your body. This can make it harder for you to fight infections. Your doctor must check your blood before you start and during treatment. The doctor may stop your treatment if your white blood cell count stays too low.
  • Tecfidera may damage the liver. This can happen a few days or months after starting the medication. If you feel tired, lose your appetite, or your skin or eyes turn yellow, stop the medication and call your doctor. Your doctor will check your liver with blood tests before and during treatment.
  • Tecfidera may cause flushing. Your skin may feel warm, red, itchy, or burning. This usually happens when you start the medication and may improve over time. Taking Tecfidera with food or a low-dose aspirin 30 minutes before may help reduce flushing.
  • Tecfidera can cause serious stomach problems. This includes bleeding, holes, or blockage in the stomach or intestines. These problems can be dangerous and may happen within the first 6 months. If you have strong stomach pain, vomiting, or bloody stools, tell your doctor right away.
