Title: Start with low doses to avoid flushing
Product review: Start out with low doses (100mg) and work your way up so that you know how much you can tolerate. I experienced intense flushing and itching that lasted 2 hours with the 500mg, while not harmful it was very unpleasant. The 100mg was not a problem for me so I'm back to that and will gradually work my way up to higher doses. Best to take it after a meal and drink lots of water when you start feeling flushed. Note that hot beverages may increase the chance of flushing so you may want to avoid it. Overall, niacin is very effective in raising your HDL and lowering triglycerides.
