Why does niacin make me wired?

Posted by gromit on November 18, 2004, at 19:36:08

My doctor suggested I try niacin to lower my high cholestrol. I took 500 mg a couple nights ago and couldn't sleep a wink. I took my trazodone with a little melatonin and a valerian root mixture. Usually this will knock me out, but I was up all night. I had a beer and when that didn't work either I had some shots of vodka.

I remember talking with Larry about NADH and how it only worked for a couple days. I remember now that I was taking niacin at that time but stopped because of the flush. I have read that the no-flush niacin does nothing for cholesterol and the time release stuff may be bad for you liver.

Any ideas?


Thanks
Rick
