that sounds a bit much,5-10g? was that a typo? is this through experience

Tweetwell....just so happens I looked it up today because I'm experiencing acne and B5 is recommended at a dose of 10 grams to 15 grams a day (spread out evenly throughout the day) until the acne clears and then back off until you find a maintenance dose. Very individual thing the articles say.

Also, B5 is water soluble vitamin so there's no risk for overdosing....the body will simply expel what it doesn't need.

not a typo... this is through research on these boards and then experience. i was skeptical at first but it really works. i hate acne. works differently for everyone though.

I have never seen B-5
Only B-6 B-7 etc...

Pantothenic Acid is what it is called. GNC has 500mg capsules/100 per bottle.

Tweetno problem

TweetYup 10 grams sounds right starting out. I got 8 bottles of 100 capsules @500 mg each. For only $6 a bottle.

That was me who said 5grams a day. It works and it keeps me from using accutane again and the other prescription drugs for acne.

Nope but my skin is clearer and less oily and I don't have to deal with chapped lips, putting vaseline on my ears, applying non-comedogenic lotion.
