Nicotinyl alcohol, also known as pyridylcarbinol, is a vasodilator drug that is structurally related to niacin (nicotinic acid). It was previously used to lower blood lipid levels (hypolipidemic agent) and to improve peripheral circulation, but it is not commonly used or approved for clinical use today.
No published pharmacokinetic models available for nicotinyl alcohol in humans. Estimates based on class similarity (niacin).
