Hi Malcolm. I am leery of niacin for reasons other than just flushing. I
would check with my doctor before taking it. One needs a knowledgable
well-rounded doctor. FYI:
Adverse Niacin Side Effects
Some of the niacin side affects reported most especially for non-flush
products and high doses (higher than the threshold amount) of the vitamin
include gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting, nausea, flatulence,
bloating and diarrhea as well as sudden decrease in blood pressure.
Other (Rare) Side Effects of Niacin
There are isolated cases where other niacin side effects occur. These rare
side effects range from simple dryness and scaliness of the skin, excessive
pigmentation, to liver disorder, blurred vision, activation of the peptic
ulcer, and jaundice.
Hi Faith,
for that you can take a form - niacinamide, often labeled as "non-flush"
niacin. Works for me and regular niacin gives me intense skin prickles.
Take care, Malcolm
