Dear Friends i am Dr. Harsha(MBBS MD DNB) ... Medical Advisor with Micro Labs.
I am working on Nicovas .

Nicovas is chemically Inositol Hexa Nicotinate. It releases free nicotinic acid slowly.

It is a drug used for raising HDL. HDL is known as good cholesterol and it should be more than 40 in men and more than 50 in women.

Nicovas gives advantage over conventional Nicotinic acid since it does not produce flushing...

Since flushing is a major problem with Nicotinic acid, Nicovas provides a great advantage of no flush Nicotinic acid..

Right dose of Nicovas is 2 to 3 gram/day..

Trust me none of your patients will have flushing..

We have made two publications on clinical trials done with Nicovas..
Any one intends to know more please email me at [email protected]

1. I am taking Nicovas along with Atova / Asp / Telmisartan / alprazolam ; feeling some flushing ! since my HDL - 25 only while other lipid paras are O.K.
2. Is it telling upon my liver ?
3. Can I withdraw Nicovas once I get my HDL O.K ?
4. Should I take B-complex along with Nicovas ?
