How Can Palate Swelling Caused By Niacin Be Treated?
yeah i took some niacin to clean out my system i decided to go to the marines, lol. anyways it made me throw up and it was a pretty bad day, but it's been two days and the roof of my mouth on both sides are swollen. I have a lot of trouble eating. What do I do?
As per your complain throwing up and swelling over the roof of the mouth after taking Niacin which is a Vitamin B3 supplement seems to be due to allergic reaction to Niacin.. You should not take Niacin supplement again and for relieving the allergy symptoms you can take anti-allergics like Levocetrizine or fexofenadine [Allegra] for relief.. Gargle with 1:1 solution of benadryl and milk of magnesia.. If there is pain you can gargle with a numbing mouthwash containing Lignocaine.. Sucking ice will also help..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards.. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
