Should I take half the amount daily, or just occasionally? +++Hi Judy, You are welcome for my replies. Oh my goodness, you took way too much niacin since you only need 50 mg twice a day, not 500 mg! No wonder you got such a severe flush. See my Supplements Chart for the handy list: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/supp7.php You can crush up a 500 mg tablet and take a pinch of it to get closer to 50 mg, but you should buy 100 mg and cut it in half, or 50 mg if you can. All the best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
