I'm discovering that I can tolerate certain B vitamins, but not others. I tend to have higher histamine levels, but the Risperdal controls that to some degree. Still, I have heard that vitamin B6 is very good for high histamine, and I seem to do well on it. However, I don't seem to do well on Niacin, B12, and folate for the most part. I can take these three once in a while, but not everyday. Purportedly, Niacin, B12, and folate have an effect on histamine levels such that they may tend to complicate my depression. On the other hand, vitamins B1, B6, and B2 tend to quell my depressive symptoms. Anyone had experience with using individual B vitamins and how you felt? I recently posted something on using Niacin with medication and how I felt that there might be an interaction between the two. I can't find any information that this is the case. It's just an assumption. Either there is an interaction between high dose Niacin and psychotropic medications or it is more a matter of Niacin affecting histamine levels. Niacin is usually recommended for people who have lower histamine levels rather than high histamine. Any experiences are welcome. Thank you.
