A randomized pilot study on the effect of niacin on pulmonary arterial pressure

Conclusions A single dose of immediate-release niacin (100 mg or 500 mg) had no significant effect on RVSP 1 hour post administration. A nonsignificant dose-dependent trend for a modest reduction in RVSP, most notable in the 500 mg group, was noted. (ISRCTN number 12353191, registered April 23, 2015).
