Tecfidera

Hi everyone. Sorry if this has been asked previously but I’m new to this page. I have today had my first delivery of Tecfidera and am due to start taking asap. I want to know what sort of food I should be eating when taking them. My problem is that I never eat breakfast but will start doing so now. What sort of breakfast food would be good to reduce the risk of side effects? I believe it should be high in protein of high in fat. I don’t however want to pile on the pounds!! TIA

No personal experience but people discussed it just a few days ago here: https://shift.ms/@shelbie/tecfidera-dGnCVs3Y70bavupU5DhW

Scrambled eggs, bacon sandwich, peanut butter & banana on toast porridge with added protein etc etc fat & protein really helps with Tec side effects good luck & I hear u about breakfast & weight gain. I’m not a natural breakfast eater but u get used to it eventually best way to counteract the weight gain is cut portions throughout day with Tec bigger break, smaller lunch & snack dinner time that kind of thing hope this helps good luck & take care 💪👍
