Have had mild to severe acne for 20 years. Have tried everything - antibiotics, retin-A, over the counter, herbal, etc.
Have been suffering for the past 6 months with very severe breakouts I have been unable to get under control.
Was on the internet considering buying Acutane online (My Dermatologist is against prescribing it, believes it is too dangerous) and ran across sites claiming that taking high doses of Vitamin B5 work just as well. Immediately the next day I Went up to the drugstore to get some and was suprised to find they don't sell it. Ended up getting it at GNC.
It's been only about a week and a half and the results have been truly amazing!! Am having high hopes of getting rid of this problem for the first time in a very long time!
I would sincerely suggest anyone suffering with acne to look into this - just use the search words - "vitamin b5 for acne" PLEASE research this for yourself. I thought I knew everything there was to try, until I came across this. I have absolutely no idea why it's not public knowledge.
