Pros Less oil, completely cleared my skin. I had 7 pimples last week and there are 0-1 today. Pores appear tighter.
Cons very drying with chapped lips and dry flaky skin. 1 day of diarrehea and 1 day of constipation. burning face as drying occured.
Bottom line I would definetely reccomend it, but maybe try less quantity first. The first 3 days I did 3 G which is 6 500mg pills and seen effects instantly. Then I increased to 5G a day which is 10 pills a day and it seems to work great for me. Its just extremely drying for me with the soap I use and differin gel 0.3. But, it has been a 1-2 wks so far and my scars are claring and my skin only had 1 pimple that came back. That is a drastic improvemnet from having 6 or more at once. I was about to start on accutane next wk so hopefully this continues to work.
Regiment

Pros WORKS GREAT FOR OILY SKIN.
Cons MANY SIDE EFFECTS WITH SCRIP/DRUGS. BE SUPER CAREFUL
Bottom line B-5 TIME RELEASE WORKED GREAT FOR MY OILY SKIN BUT I AM ALSO TAKING A SATIN AND MY LEGS WENT INTO SHUT DOWN MODE. SPENT TWO WEEKS IN PAIN BEFORE FINDING OUT THAT IT DOES EFFECT THE JOINTS AND I WAS IN LOTS OF PAIN, LOSS ALL MY LEG HAIR AS WELL. KNEES WHERE 3 TIMES THERE SIZE. MD'S WHERE LOSS FOR WORDS. AS SOON AS I STOPED IT WENT AWAY. KNEES WENT DOWN OVER NIGHT. MAYBE THERE ARE OTHER DRUGS IT DOES NOT WORK WELL WITH. MY MD'S NEVER KNEW OF THIS SIDE EFFECT BUT THIS TYPE OF BRUD HAS BEEN KNOW TO HAVE ADVERSE EFFECTS WITH SOME DRUGS MADE FOR BLOOD/JOINTS PROBLEM. IF YOU LOOK UP B5 IN THE AMA'S DRUG BOOK (NOT THE PDR) IT SAYS THAT LITTLE OR NO STUDYS HAVE BEEN DONE USE THIS DRUG FOR A LONG TIME. IT ALSO SAY'S THAT A POSSIBLE PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE TAKING ASPRIN'S IS NOW BEING STUDYED. NICE FOR OILY SKIN BUT TO RISKY FOR LONG TERN USE. I STOPED TAKING IT ANS ALL MY LEG PAIN AWAY, AND MY LEG HAIR CAME BACK. LIKE I SAID "ALL" MY DOCTORS WHERE STUMPED ABOUT THIS DRUG. TAKE WITH A OPEN EYE !

Pros Uhhh?
Cons Expensive. Lots of pills. Useless
Bottom line I'd avoid vilatae like the plague, i spent so much money on this product which i feel is advertised alot like diet pills. False promises are made, i even showed my derm this product and she was baffled. It also screwed my bowels up. i wont go into details

Pros Worked great. Less oil, much clearer skin, experienced no side effects at all.
Cons Doesn't work overnight. Can be annoying taking so many pills at first.
Bottom line It's definitely not a scam. Heck, it's just a vitamin. It's not like you have to buy it from some "B5 for acne" company. That so many people have seen great results from just taking B5 should tell you something. I took a chance on it and am glad I did.

Pros No Pros
Cons Made my skin not less oily, ontop of that not even after I was done the first bottle of Vilantae, my eye browe hair started falling out, and yeah since i stopped taking Vilantae, my face got worst then before, Now I have acne everywhere
Bottom line Don't buy usless sh*t like that, these companies just wana get your money. Thats all, Now my acne is worst then before, Last year it was bad and then it went back to a normal level, now since i took Vilantae my face is the worst it has ever been, Thx Vilantae. Now I am to ashamed to go out because of my face.
DON'T BUY IT.
