It's great, came quickly, lot of pills in that bottle for the price, love it. Has flushing effect, that's how you know it's working.

better dosage for me
I take niacin on a regular basis and require the regular form--not the flush free--for my particular needs. I discovered that taking one 100mg tablets several times a day helps to avoid the major flush I was getting from the 500 mg capsules.

Flush!
Love the flushing effect. Haven't noticed much else, but the cost is great as well as the quality. Been using it 1x a week so far.

Flushing at 300mg
I took these pills for a week, originally 100mg doses. Week 2 I tried 200mg and still felt nothing. Today was my first day on week 3 at 300mg and the flush was intense and strong! Within 35 minutes of taking it, my skin was red and very itchy.
I am pleased to finally find my dosage for this, I may use a pill cutter and try 250mg to see if its less intense.
I will be buying this again!!

great buy
Just be sure to follow directions on the side of the bottle: do not take on an empty stomach. I did, and ended up with the skin flushing and tingling which they warned about.....

No Flush
Have never got a flush from this Niacin. For 100mg these are about eight times larger than other Nician that I have used. 90% of the time I got a flush from my other 100mg Nician. I have not got a flush from the Swanson. The benifits from Nician come from the flush.

Excellent Buy
Did not notice the flush effect that most speak of with this product. It was a slight moment only. Nothing like I read about. Good value and worth taking.

Disappointed
The flush is usually noticeable with 250 mg of niacin from a different brand.
However, 300 mg from this product does not produce a flush. I've had good results from Swanson products but I'm unhappy with this product.

I like this product
Stronger doses of Niacin gave me so much of a flush that I was extremely uncomfortable. With this product, I still get flush but it is not uncomfortable. For me the right dosage at the right price. Can't beat that!
Just wish it came in capsule form...

Not totally satisfied
I was advised by my doctor that regular niacin was better and that the flushing of the skin is what you want. I've used other niacins ( not the "No Flush " variety) which in 100 mg doses produced that flushed feeling. I can take 300 mg of the swanson with very little reaction. Not sure what to make of this.

Works for me
I get a flush with this niacin but much prefer it over the time-release capsules.

Disappointing
For the first time, I am disappointed with a Swanson product. Niacin is one of the nutritional supplements you can actually feel working (that's the "flush" you've heard about). With other in-expensive niacin supplements I've taken, the flush is noticeable, but with this Swanson niacin, there is no flush at all, leaving me to wonder why...
