KAL Pantothenic Acid 1000mg Supplement for Men & Women - Vitamin B5 1000 mg, Supports Cellular Energy Metabolism, Nerve Function, Sustained Release, Vegan - 100 Tablets

I've tried all different types of antibiotics and topical gels/creams to treat my acne, but nothing worked. I finally was given Accutane for the first time when I was 14. It was magical and completely cleared my skin up. It had some serious side effects, but I ignored them because the results were worth the torment. One in particular, still affects me today. My back lower back is very weak and it has severely limited my strength potential. I am now 27 and I've been on Accutane three times so far. This tells you that my acne is severe and very persistent. I was considering going on Accutane a fourth time. I went to the dermatologist and just like always they wanted exhaust all the other options before putting me on Accutane. Normally I wouldn't waste their time or mine, but since I had gotten back into powerlifting and I didn't want to wreck my back anymore I decided to let them try. I was put on antibiotics and tretinoin gel and my skin was no better! Another dermatologist added Klaron lotion and asked me to ween myself off the antibiotics. My skin was much better! I was so glad that something other than Accutane was actually working! Unfortunately, although my acne was being controlled it was no cleared. That is when I decided to give Pantothenic Acid a try. Within about a week I noticed a drastic difference. My face, which was usually very oily had almost NO oil, my existing nodules were healing, no new nodules had developed. Within the next week I received a compliment regarding my healing skin. I was extremely happy! This stuff definitely works in reducing the oil your body produces and in my case began clearing my acne! I just bought 4 more bottles and I plan to continue taking these indefinitely. I don't have any new nodules, just skin discoloration from prior nodules. I've only been on it for a little over a month, but I hope that my skin stays nodule free. Consistently taking the pills is very important! I noticed that if I missed a dosage (3 pills 4 times a day) my skin became oily and I developed a whitehead or two. I plan to taper off my dosage after 3 months. As a person who has dealt with Acne for over a decade I absolutely suggest you give this a try! My experience with it has been very good and I hope it is the same for you.

I suffered and battled from horrible acne since I was 16 and tried everything, murand, rx antibiotic,and probably most of the over the counter you can buy out there, and spend hundreds of dollars with doctors and aetheticians visits; my acne will be eliminated but not completely to my satisfaction and once I stop my expensive regimen, all cystic acne will come back...like it misses my face (GRRRRR!!!!) and two year ago, I went ahead and did the accutane treatment. It helped my skin alot but it very scary since I heard alot of horrible stories about it. Luckily, I only suffered from very dried skin and chapped lips. It also eliminated my body and chest cystic acne, but my face started getting oily again after six months getting off that treatment. I was devastated, and I don't want to be on it forever as it is very harsh for your liver and kidneys. So I went to all my topical regimen but as time goes by, it keeps getting worse and my face will get so oily again after an hour of applying my make-up. I was searching some facial wash and stumble upon one of the consumer's review and she mentioned about this vitamins that works like wonder, so I bought it and no harm since I did an extensive research and found that this stuff is safe and is water soluble so no over dose can occur and any exessive doses are excreted through urination. I started taking this 5/17, took 2 pills of 1000mg and the next day, I noticed that cystic acnes are more calm compare from the last few days that they were so inflammed and painful. Today is 5/20 and noticed a difference on the oil formation on my face. It cuts about 30-40% of the oil on my face thus far and the more inflammed cystic acnes are starting to dries up, this includes using my rx Taxorac topical cream. So far so good and I should post in a week or so to give you an update if this stuff really works as everyone that tried said it does.... My dosage/regimen is as follows: 4000mg of Pan Acid (2 in the morning and 2 at night) 1 5mg of zinc 1 B12 (it boost my energy) ------------------------------------------------------------ UPDATE: 5/31/12 It has been about 2 weeks now and I significantly noticed a difference on my skin. The acne zits and flare ups before taking this product has gone down. It wasn't as inflammed and painful anymore, it seem to be healing and pores of my face seem be a lot smaller and because of this the oil doesn't seem to produce as much. I'll give another update in the next few weeks.

Since I have cystic acne , I need to take supplements for internal healing that's why I decided to buy this. After a week of taking it , my pimples dried up . Am looking forward to be acne-free soon. This product is amazing.
