http://www.medications.com/effect/view/38546 I am a 60 year old male. I have been on high dose Niacin for more than 12 years. 2 years ago I started taking the combination drug, Advicor. (Lipitor and Niacin) Up until this point, there were no side affects with the Niacin other than occasional flushing.

I suggest that you stop taking it before you have more side effects. There are many natural products and alternatives . . .instead of taking a danger http://www.medications.com/effect/view/38546?item=16622 Sat, 31 Jan 2009 23:32:00 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/38546?item=16625 niacin can control cholesterol just fine. depression too. lipitor will kill your muscles. you don't need medication niacin or a doctor. last time i checked, it's still a vitamin. the FDA hasn't made it a controlled substance yet go back to just plain http://www.medications.com/effect/view/38546?item=16625
