Nutritional Supplements > B Vitamins > Item 18      Slo-Niacin Polygel Controlled-Release Niacin, 750mg, Tablets - 100 ea Product Description Patented Formulation. Slo-Niacin Tablets are manufactured utilizing a unique, patented polygel controlled-release delivery system. This exclusive technology assures the gradual and measured release of niacin (nicotinic acid) and is designed to reduce the incidence of flushing and itching commonly associated with niacin use. Slo-Niacin is a member of the vitamin B-complex group and is suggested as a dietary supplement. This product has the advantage of a slower release of niacin than conventional dosage forms. This may permit its use by those who do not tolerate immediate-release tablets. Amount per Serving   % US RDA Serving Size: 1 Tablet   Serving per Container: 100   Niacin (B3) 750 mg 3750% Safety Information Caution: Niacin may cause temporary flushing, itching, and tingling, feelings of warmth and headache, particularly when beginning, increasing amount or changing brand of niacin. These effects seldom require discontinuing niacin use. Skin rash, upset stomach, and low blood pressure when standing are less common symptoms; if they persist, contact a physician. Keep out of reach of children. Warnings: Slo-Niacin Tablets should not be used by persons with a known sensitivity or allergy to niacin. Persons with heart disease, particularly those who have recurrent chest pain (angia) or who recently suffered a heart attack, should take niacin only under the supervision of a physician.

Increased uric acid and glucose levels and abnormal liver function tests have been reported in persons taking daily doses of 500 mg or more of niacin.
