I am taking 500mg of it a day to start, and hoping that I can get myself off of it within 3 months. I've added a ton of natural cholesterol reducing items to my diet and am stepping up with the gym stuff so I don't have to keep taking niacin.

What type of T dose are you taking. I'm down to .25 ml every other week. There are times for endurance and muscle strength I'd like more but it helps keep some of my other negative effects at bay.
