    niacin & 17aa less effective?

    would takign niacin 500-1000mg a day hurt the effectiveness of a 17aa steriod ? currently taking anavar with creatine afternoon, milk thistle with accutane in morning

    Why are we taking niacin while taking accutane?

    If your liver can't lessen the effect of 17a then I doubt that niacin will bro!

    i thought since niacin flushes your system it might flush out the 17aa out of the system

    17a refers to a molecule attached in the 17th position of a chain of molecues to prevent the liver from breaking the substance down so it can reach the blood stream intact...without the effect being lessened.

    So there is no chance of niacin flushing a specific molecule off of a chain of molecules. Hope this helps

    i think you misunderstood "flushing". the flushing referred to is the peripheral vasodilatory effect of niacin. it doesn't mean that niacin increases the "flushing" of things out of the system. i'd be more worried about taking three drugs together that are pretty nasty on the liver. are you getting regular liver tests done?
