Is there any chance of a hives reaction to any of these?
Vitamin E 400 IU Niacin 500 mg Mega B-50 I broke out in hives about 30-40 minutes after taking these for the first time yesterday. They are Puritan's Pride brand. I have taken their vitamins for a long time, and I already take a lot of vitamins and supplements. These do have some other ingredients, but not a bunch of extra stuff like artificial colors, soy, gluten, wheat, lactose, etc. I've never had reactions to vitamins before and do not really have food allergies. I also took 1000 mg tablet Curcumin c3 complex Doctor's Best for the first time yesterday, but that was about 8 hours before. There are not many other things that could have caused it, so I feel that it might have been one of these, strange as it seems to me. My whole body was red. I took a benadryl and it calmed down. Thanks for any insight. Julie

Current companions: Significant depression, anxiety, hyperacusis, difficulty with verbal expression (recall & word mixups), mild spacial/vestibular issues. Feelings of disconnect in relationships. |

If you bought regular niacin... that typically causes a flushing reaction. It can be hivey or itch/sting for quite a while.
It is called the niacin flush. Some people find that an aspirin 1 hr before blocks this response. The other form of niacin called niacinamide does not flush. I cannot say about the curcumin... that brand with the pepper in it might be tough for some people. The new CurcuBrain by NOW has the LongVida licensed brand in it and is very nice (this is new and not as expensive as LongVida was). You can find it on Amazon. It has especially processed curcumin in it for high absorption. Curcumin without special enhancements stays in the GI tract and little gets out. The LongVida type is the type used in the studies. It and CurcuGel (which is not quite a good as the LongVida nanoparticles) were used in the studies because they are absorbed better.
