Comment:
I've taking this product twice a day well over 10 years with excellent results. Triglycerides are below 100 and HDLs up 30 points. I do experience flushing on rare occasions, but downing 16 oz of water (maybe a little more), makes the flushing dissipates in 5-10 minutes. As recommended a good diet and exercises makes it easier to tolerate. Best of all, I got off statins.

Started off with total cholesterol at 320 and Triglycerides at 1400. I have been taking 1500mg of slo niacin every day for eight months. My total cholesterol is currently 140 and my triglycerides are 175. Yes I get flushing spells once or twice a week, but that is certainly worth the benefits I have received.

I took my first 500MG pill and 1 hour later I was scarlet red from head to toe, with tingling feeling all over, itchy like I had the hives, worst hot flash feeling, this lasted for 30 min and then gradually subsided only to return 5 hours later! I'm not sure I want to take it again.

Comment:
After taking just one slo niacin I broke out with severe itching and flushing lasting for several hours. I then developed terrible mouth sores with painful gums and gum bleeding. It has been a week and a half and still having mouth problems although they have gotten somewhat better. I had been taking regular niacin without problems. Won't take Slo niacin again.
