I got my info from this article:
< Dimethyl fumarate for moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis

It included this information on pricing:
<Methotrexate PO 7.5 mg weekly £9.87
Methotrexate PO 25 mg weekly £32.88
Acitretin 25 mg daily £335.12
Acitretin 50 mg daily £670.25
Methotrexate SC 7.5 mg weekly £772.97
Methotrexate SC 25 mg weekly £961.92
Ciclosporin 2.5 mg/kg daily* £1,487.79
Fumaderm® 240 mg daily** £1,834.56
Ciclosporin 5 mg/kg daily* £2,912.83
Fumaderm® 720 mg daily** £5,503.68
Apremilast (Otezla®) 30 mg BD £7,150.00
Etanercept (Benepali®) 50 mg weekly £8,536.53
Adalimumab (Humira®) 40 mg every 2 weeks £9,151.98
Ustekinumab (Stelara®) 45 mg or 90 mg every 12 weeks £9,299.95
Infliximab (Inflectra® or Remsima®) 5 mg/kg* every 8 weeks £9,815.23
Secukinumab (Cosentyx®) 300 mg monthly £15,837.80>
My price estimate was for daily 240 mg Fumaderm for a year and I am assuming that NICE will drive a hard bargain for the benefit of British taxpayers. For 14*120 mg DMF, Tecfidera is claimed to cost ~£340. The same quantity would cost me 4.1664 cents US.
