Hi, Has anyone one had long term results with B5? I mean clear skin on B5 for more than 2-3 years? I've heard success stories for 1 -5 months, but never over 2 years. Please reply to my post if you have! Also, will this work for mild acne/whiteheads?

thank you.

I have been on B5 for around 2+ years and it has been the only thing since accutane to do any good. Recently though, it seemed to not be as effective anymore, as my skin was getting more oily again. I originally started taking 8g a day and reduced it to around 4g/day and even got as low as 500mg/day. I figured since it wasn't working so well, to get off it for a while and try other things and then start back up again. I have currently been off it now for about a month. I have tried other things that have helped somewhat in the meantime. My acne is outta control now though (due to too much sugar lately ..), so i'm getting back on the b5, taking about 6g/day until it starts working again hopefully (usually takes around 2 weeks to see results), and then plan to reduce it too. I'm trying to stay off the sugar as well, as that really aggrevates things. But thats my long-term b5 story.
