Looking at the ingredients label, some of the "other ingredients" sound a little too non-descriptive. For example, they don't tell you what exactly is the source or content of the "medium chain triglycerides"?

There's a couple questions begging to be asked:

-How do you really know this is the cause of your acne and night sweats?

-Have you stopped taking it? If yes, did these symptoms go away?

Yes and yes, absolutely without a doubt 100% positively sure.

I think someone reported here that high doses of certain b vitamins broke them out.. I doubt that's the case, but i don't know what other ingredients would.

Biotin is normally the one causing cystic acne. However there's not so much in there. Iirc it has been tested that B6 and B12 can cause acne as well, and those are in pretty high amounts I guess.

Personally I wouldn't take high amounts of any of the B vitamins with the exception of B5/Pantothenic acid.

I just got a new multi vitamin that also contains biotin, b12 and B6. I don't think the amounts are too high (like 200%), but i started getting a few pimples around my mouth. The only other possible cause could be because I've been eating a lot of peanut butter lately. some people are affected by peanuts, apparently
