| 4 | reduce LDL/increase HDL | Rarely will get a warm tingling feeling about 4 hours after ingestion but usually stops after 30 mintes. Appears to be the flushing effect of niacin.. | My cardiologist suggested this medication to reduce LDL and increase HDL. It has worked for the LDL, reducing it from 125 to 90 mg/dl. The HDL has stayed the same at 45 mg/dl. Also this drug is not on my insurance formulary, so not sure if I need it, A normal statin alone might do the same thing, and be a whole lot cheaper. | M | 70 | 7 months 500/20 1X day | 4/20/2012 |
