I take 1,000 mg of niacin per day. Mine is a prescription pill called Niaspan. My doctor's advise to avoid a flush works very well:

1) take it before bed - this does not prevent a flush but most cholesterol is formed when sleeping and also, if you get your flush while sleeping it shouldn't bother you.
2) do not take it on an empty stomach - this is the most important thing to avoid a flush
3) do not take it along with alcohol or caffeine(wait atleast an hour after drinking)
