The niacin flush occurs when you take a high dose for the first few times. You will acclimate after awhile and it will lessen or disappear.
Too high, too quickly will have you contemplating your mortality. (It's an old college prank) I have heard that 3 grams is a max safe dose for long term use. More is associated with kidney damage I believe. Niacinimide does not have the flush, nor the effect on cholesterol. You'll have to tough it out! BTW, aspirin nullifies the flush, I'm told.
