Acute administration of nicotinamide-like nicotinic acid caused a decrease of serum cholesterol, triglycerides and free-fatty acids in the fasted rat. However, the dose of nicotinamide required for these effects was much larger than that of nicotinic acid. The serum half-life of nicotinamide was found to be three times greater than nicotinic acid. The duration of hypolipidemic activity of nicotinamide was longer than that of nicotinic acid.Nicotinic acid was found to accumulate in the serum in amounts proportional to the injected dose of nicotinamide. The concentration of nicotinic acid in the serum after nicotinamide treatment was larger than minimal serum concentrations necessary to produce free-fatty acid lowering. It was concluded that the lipopenic action of nicotinamide was indirect and was dependent upon deamidation to nicotinic acid.
