Yes here we have chicken pellets...i gave him pellets too....but one of my friends told me that i can give wheat and potato and ... Without salt or oil. We keep him in a box but we let him go out and walk in our house on carpet and also on the roof of our house. He used to eat pallet and potato...but not special duck pellet. And this syrup is the only thing containing niacin here(AD3E) i gave him one drop in water.When giving Niacin it isn't a quick fix it can take days weeks or months depending on how long the duck has had the problem.
I'm not familiar with Ad3e can you explain what this is?
Where do you keep your duck and what kind of bedding or ground is the duck on?
We do realize in other parts of the world people feed differently than we do and wheat is a good source of feed but at his age he does need the extra niacin. 10 mg per day.
here is info on feeding wheat.

I'd make sure wheat is his main source of diet with the other things you mentioned as treats.
people who have poultry in Iran feed this mainly as their chicken, ducks ,geese diet? or is there chicken feed too?
