This temporary skin flushing includes warmth, redness, itching or tingling and may at very high daily intake dosages include temporary headache, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dyspepsia, nausea, vomiting, rhinitis and skin rash. These temporary side effects can be minimized and ameliorated by starting Niacin intake at low daily dosages, then increasing daily intake levels gradually, and always taking Niacin with food.
