Overview
•Each capsule provides 500 mg niacinamide, a high-potency dose compared with daily dietary needs; it is appropriate for adults only as labelled and should not be combined casually with other high-dose B3 products.
•Niacinamide is less likely to cause flushing than nicotinic acid niacin, but it may still cause nausea, stomach upset, headache, dizziness, or fatigue in some users.
•People with liver disease, heavy alcohol use, diabetes, gout, or active stomach ulcers should seek medical advice before using 500 mg daily because high-dose niacinamide can affect liver enzymes, blood glucose, uric acid, or gastrointestinal tolerance.
•Use caution with hepatotoxic medications or other supplements that may stress the liver; medical monitoring is prudent if used long term or alongside prescription therapy.
•Pregnant or breastfeeding people should consult a clinician before using this high-dose B3 product, as it exceeds routine prenatal vitamin levels.
•The label states no dairy, egg, wheat, soya, gluten, artificial colours, preservatives, or sweeteners; however, the capsule contains gelatin, so it is not vegetarian or vegan.
