Since I've been getting great benefits from raising my dose of niacinamide to 1500-2000 mg/day (psoriasis of 20 years duration going away, yay!), I decided to try Lapodin since it has similar benefits in fatty acid metabolism and NAd-NADH. But it's making feel kind of sick and I'm not sure why.
Yesterday I took 3 drops transdermally and 2 orally. I had loose stool and then felt tired much of the day, even a little cold and congested. So I decided I'd just do it transdermally today and also up the dose. Well that was a mistake ! 4-5 drops on skin at breakfast, again at lunch. Much greater appetite than normal, so I ate more of everything (protein, carbs, fat). Then before dinner I took 8 drops, and my tongue swelled up. I can't eat anymore so "more fuel" isn't the answer. Also feeling tired and a little achy. The tongue swelling has happened to me before, usually from considerable stress
Why would this happen? Should I be taking very tiny amounts to build up my tolerance or adding in something else? I'd appreciate any explanations and guidance. Thanks!

what I'm eating: orange juice, skim milk, coffee, sugar and maple syrup, egg, low fat cheese, watermelon, pit fruits, some days banana and cottage cheese or greek yogurt; vegetable-chicken broth, occasionally rice, potato, chicken breast or lamb chop.
Taking: niacinamide, Kuinone, amino acid powders, progesterone, Retinal, mg glycinate, aspirin, famotidine, t3 and t4.
