Hi,
There is no documented evidence of such relation. Niacin-NF 1000 is commonly prescribed for the treatment of high blood triglycerides and as a supplement to treat vitamin B3 deficiency.
Its common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, dry mouth, itching, redness of the skin, and rash. It is unlikely to cause back pain.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
