Yes and be prepared for that 'niacin flush' if you take a 500mg capsule the first time. Phew. I had to lie down for half an hour. https://niacinreviews.com/nia

- VoiceOfWisdom 9y agoBeware the niacin flush. Once I took 500mg, after having already been accustomed to the flush. It hit hard that day though. 15 minutes after taking the pill, while driving, my vision started to narrow and go black. It felt like being chocked out. I was rapidly losing consciousness, but was able to safely pull over to the side of the road. Before completely passing out I was able to vomit up what was left of the pill. I was able to return home, and sleep for the rest of the day. This was with a single 500mg pill, after already being used to the flush.

Drink plenty of water. According to Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist from Wisconsin, ingest 2 8-oz. glasses of water immediately after the itching sensation begins. According to Dr. Davis, this quick task relieves the flush and itching symptoms in more than 90 percent of instances. Take a 325mg table of uncoated aspirin; according to Dr. Davis, this can also alleviate the itching and burning.
- eljimmy 9y agoI had no idea about this before taking it. I popped some before going to the store. Thought I was about to crap myself then started getting super itchy. Had to rush home and by then my entire body was lobster red lol Definitely want to use the non flushing version.
