Avatar f tn ve been taking 250 mg of Niacin. Based on the previous TSH told me to decrease to 150. The last dosage said to decrease to 125 mcg. Is this weird?
718651 tn?1237042917 trying to lessen w\d. i've heard people take it and they sweat out toxins in their bodies, and the next day drug tests come back clean,, so i figured it would take pills out of mine.. it does seem to be working,. i am 36 hours into it and feel pretty good...
479244 tn?1271563659 In an attempt and on the recommendation of my np, I am going to start taking B vitamins (liquid, under the tongue). I had heard that niacin was hard on the liver, when I mentioned this to her she said "I haven't heard that".... (uh oh) Anyway, I checked and found that someone with liver disease (I have mild inflamation and no fibrosis) should not take over 35 mgs. of niacin per day. This stuff I bought at the drug store has 25 mgs. of niacin.
Avatar n tn I don't know if this helps you..but in layman's terms...niacin B3 is needed to create energy for metabolism. Are you having problems with weight gain or loss?
Avatar m tn 3 oz, 7.8 mg Daily Value: 49% Just under 50 percent of the day’s niacin in a three-ounce serving. Tuna Packed in Water, Niacin Content: 3 oz, 8.6 mg Daily Value: 54% Canned tuna is the best source of niacin, and it’s packed with docosahexaenoic acid, a type of omega-3 that stunts the growth of belly fat cell. Canned chunk tuna is considered a “low mercury fish” enjoy two to three times a week, according to the FDA’s most recent guidelines. I don't trust the FDA!
Tbd What is the purpose of the niacin and should a niacin supplement be administered if the medication does not contain niacin?
Avatar f tn Improving these two aid in overall improvement in total cholesterol numbers. But niacin can have real draw backs too. You MUST talk to your doctor before starting a niacin supplement in my opinion. And if you are on a cholesterol lowering medication already, it may have no effect at all. It IS in a lot of multi vitamins and in food we eat, you are already getting some niacin. https://www.mayoclinic.
Avatar m tn red skin and feeling hot, this is due to the increase in hdl that opens up vessels and this is actually good even if you may feel having red skin and feeling hotter is strange, no worries about this by the way you may also try ezetimibe since the recent news of entry interference on hbv and no sdies from this drug, while i d not try statins
Avatar f tn Niacin is very benefit for lowering cholesterol, but it can cause problems with other labs, especially liver profile. Blood work should be monitored when taking Niacin. That is why I questioned if your physician was aware; he/she should always be made aware of all medications you are taking. Just because they are over the counter does not mean you should not be monitored periodically and/or you won't have problems with them. In my opinmin, the Niacin is the culprit.
Avatar f tn Awkward to say that you make your grown son whole... but alrighty then. You gotta put your foot down. Gotta try the polite way first, if that doesn't work then do it the harder way. I have problems with other people using my kitchen utensils and things, luckily I haven't had to shoo anyone away from then in a year or so. But I would be upset if she was like "oh I'm coming over to cook in your kitchen.
Avatar f tn um do you have like $60 you could spend? cause if you type in on the internet "3d/4d ultrasounds near _______"(put your city, and state in) and a lot of places do ultrasounds as early as 8 weeks they will be able to tell you a exact date and everything just bring your husband with you and get the ultrasound tech to tell him exactly how far along you are.
Avatar n tn Does anyone else think it's weird that my mother in law wants to be in my delivery room ?
Avatar n tn OMG -.- yes I understand you I have a monster in law too and she now even treats my fiancé like shi* just because he is with me and puts me and his child over her. She has become the biggest bit*h ever since we found out we were pregnant. She brings his obsessed ex over all the time to irritate me and talks about her 24/7 even tried convincing my fiancé to leave me for her.
Avatar f tn Mine hated me for the 3 years we were dating then loved me once I gave her a granddaughter ( she has two boys so a girl was huge) and now my *** of a film up and left her, family and life for some island in south america and it threw my brother in law into a break down so when he freaks out on her she uses my husband and I as punching bags!!!
Avatar f tn Next time she starts in you need to in a very polite and respectful manner and tone tell her she is being disrespectful and you don't appreciate it. If she starts a fight over it... then she is being childish... The important thing is to maintain your composure so she is the one who looks like an @$$hole.
Avatar n tn I have had the annoying ear fluttering for many years, and my regular doctors have been clueless. Finally I may go to an ENT, but I did some research on line and found this: http://www.emedicine.com/ent/TOPIC235.HTM My fluttering seems to be a type of muscular tinnitus, perhaps caused by deterioration of some nerves in the area after some type of injury and/or muscle spasm. What to do?

Avatar n tn Hello dear and welcome to the medhelp forum. Niacin is usually prescribed for increasing the levels of HDL or the good cholesterol. It helps in protecting against the effects of atherosclerosis. It is available in many forms, fast acting and long lasting, over the counter and prescribed. There is a known incidence of facial flush with high doses. It could also cause headaches, dizziness and raised blood sugar. It is therefore prudent to take it under a physician’s prescription and supervision.
1063764 tn?1272821064 t want to end up taking too many vitamins. I also take calcium with vitamin D in it. The niacin supplements I bought say they are "flush" free. Also what is the best time to take them? I've read that they can make you tired. Thanks for any help.
1495437 tn?1288798915 Your body is known to hypersensitive to Niacin. Flushing, hypotension is known adverse effect of niacin in some individuals. The spectrum of these reactions can vary widely; reactions may present as typical allergic symptoms (eg, itching, urticaria, rash, edema) after a single dose, or may manifest as severe idiosyncratic dermatologic reaction. As for marks are concerned, Hydroquinone cream against prescription plus sun protection can lighten existing lesions.
