1-Methylnicotinamide (1-MNA, trigonellamide) is a prototypic organic cation. 1-Methylnicotinamide is the methylated amide of nicotinamide (niacinamide, vitamin B₃).

1-Methylnicotinamide is an endogenic substance that is produced in the liver when nicotinamide is metabolized. It is a typical substance secreted in the kidney. It participates in the nicotinamide salvage pathway within the NAD⁺ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) metabolic pathway, thereby contributing to optimizing NAD⁺ levels.
