Niacin (Vitamin B3) pour High Triglycerides (Hypertriglyceridemia)

B Preuves Au moins un essai randomisé le soutient, avec des résultats globalement concordants.

Reduces triglycerides 20-50% dose-dependently. Particularly effective for combined dyslipidemia (high TG + low HDL). Flushing limits adherence with immediate-release forms.
