Do you take a particular brand that you'd recommend?
Oh, here's a description. I wouldn't call niacin safe, but I guess if you're taking the immediate release sort it isn't too bad.

I take the NOW brand.
From what I researched, the time release and such springs from all sorts of gyrations to keep people from flushing, when it's the flushing that does one good, breaking down histamines and other leftovers from stress.
I took a break for several months when I got sick with shingles, just to keep body stress, if any, low. Back on it again, will see how it goes.
If I don't need it to get great sleep, that's one thing. When I take it and see an improvement in my condition, I figure it is doing me some good.
