A major cardiovascular problem is a “change of heart”

Having a heart attack or other major cardiovascular problem such as bypass surgery is life-changing. Before it happens, most people don’t expect it. After it happens, they want to make sure it never happens again.

The active ingredient in NIASPAN^® (niacin extended-release tablets) can help

NIASPAN significantly raises the level of HDL cholesterol —the good cholesterol that removes "bad" cholesterol from the body and may lower the risk of another major health problem. In fact, the active ingredient in NIASPAN has been shown to help lower the risk of a second heart attack in patients who already had a history of heart attack or other heart problems.

Take action now to reduce your risk.

A major cardiovascular problem is a wake-up call to take better care of yourself. Research shows that your body will respond if you make the effort. You CAN lower your risk of having more health problems in the future by taking action now.

Talk with your doctor about ways to lower your risk, and ask whether NIASPAN may be right for you.
