    yea, it's called the niacin "flush" -- comes from taking too much niacin at once. it's why they make a "no-flush" version as well.

    you'll be fine man. drink lots of water

    Ouch...sorry you weren't warned about that side effect. Here's a way to help....I'm a dr...and use niacin for people with high cholesterol that doesnt respond to other meds. Here's a way to help with the flushing-- take an Asprin ( 325mg tab) about 30 min prior to taking it...and gradually increase the dose up. There's also an extended release form which causes less flushing. Also, make sure you avoid drinking hot liquids near the time of taking it.....it can cause the flushing to be worse. Make sure you've had your liver function tests checked as a baseline prior to starting niacin--- it can cause liver damage or failure (check it every 6-12 weeks for awhile...then less frequent checks are needed). Just as a precaution---it's also been associated with muscle breakdown. Good luck!
