Effectiveness
How Niacor Affects PatientsNiacin is a B vitamin commonly used to treat vitamin deficiencies and various forms of high cholesterol. It works by reducing the amount of very low and low-density lipoprotein while increasing levels of high-density lipoprotein, reducing the risk of a heart attack. Niacin’s safe dosage range is 500-2000mg per day, but people with diabetes, kidney problems, underactive thyroid, or who are elderly and taking niacin with certain statin drugs may be at risk of developing muscle pain or damage.
How Niacor works in the bodyNiacin has many roles in the body, some of which are still not fully understood. Niacin helps control lipids by reducing the production of triglycerides in the liver and by breaking down triglycerides in fatty tissue. It also prevents the breakdown of HDL, a type of good cholesterol. All of these actions together help to reduce bad cholesterol levels and improve overall heart health.
When to interrupt dosage
The recommended amount of Niacor is contingent upon the determined condition, including inadequate response to diet, Dietary Modifications and Pellagra. The quantity likewise shifts with the technique of delivery (e.g. Oral or Tablet - Oral) featured in the table beneath.Condition
