Aluminium nicotinate is a coordination compound of aluminium and nicotinic acid (niacin). Historically, it has been investigated and used as a lipid-lowering agent in certain countries, particularly in Eastern Europe, but is not widely approved or used today in major regulatory regions such as the US or EU.
No published pharmacokinetic (PK) data available for aluminium nicotinate in humans. Parameters below are estimated for a hypothetical healthy adult individual based on related compounds (e.g., niacin) and general PK principles for oral metal complexes.
