Treatment for Visual Snow Syndrome

Niacin (vitamin B3) is proposed to potentially alleviate Visual Snow Syndrome symptoms by modulating neuronal excitability and improving microcirculation through its vasodilatory and neurotrophic effects. Its mechanism involves activating nicotinic acid receptors, enhancing cerebral blood flow, and potentially reducing neuronal hyperexcitability in visual processing regions of the brain.
