Nangona ukusilela kwe-niacin kunqabile phakathi kwabantu base-United States, kunokuba nzima kwaye kubangele isifo se-systemic esibizwa ngokuba yi-pellagra.Iimeko ezingephi ze-pellagra zinokubangela urhudo kunye ne-dermatitis, ngelixa iimeko ezinzima kakhulu zinokubangela ukuphambana kwengqondo kwaye zide zibulale.

Ngamanye amaxesha i-niacin imiselwe kunye ne-cholesterol-ehlisa amayeza afana ne-statins ukunceda ukuqhelanisa amanqanaba e-lipid yegazi.
