Stephen, London Feb 11th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Noticed that pores were smaller, skin was less oily and less spots. Before B5 i would have five spots at a time and B5 reduced them to 1 at a time. Cons: Missed one day and had a break out which i have to say worries me. How long will i have to take it for?? Haven't really noticed many side effects apart from a few extra visits to the toilet. Bottom Line: I started off slowly with just 10g and day then after a week I started 20g a day. I started to see results after 2 weeks but after a month i missed a day and had an outbreak a week after. I'm very scared to stop taking B5 now. I think that you will be taking a risk with this but like with everything there will be one thing that works for you. Maybe this will be it!

anonymous, Ontario Jan 30th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: It works, but you have to stick to it. Cons: If you stop you'll break out big time!!!!!!! Really really bad! And its too expensive.. Bottom Line: I have tried b5 for about months, and then I finally got so sick of taking too many pills, and I stopped taking it. And guess what!!! My skin turned horrible...a lot worse than how it was before I started B5. I so regret taking b5. Waste of money!! But, if you can afford to stick to it..then yeah but I don't know what the side effects will be for long term use. So its your choice. I'd say, look out for other solutions out there. My acne isn't all that bad now, I just simply eliminated oil, sugar and milk from my diet. And I tried to reduce stress. My still get zits here and there. But not too bad. SO MY ADVICE>>> STAY AWAYY FROM B5!!!!!!!! Recommended: No Usage: anonymous has used this item for a few months. Price Paid: 400.00 Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Anonymous, USA Jan 26th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I started taking this product about 9 Months ago, and I have not had a single pimple on my skin in months. My skin cleared up the first month, after taking 20 pills a day. Cons: The product is great, but the marks from previous breakouts can take months to clear. Bottom Line: If you have acne and want pure clear skin, this is the product for you. I get my Pantothenic Acid from GNC. You should also wash your face with a good benzoyl peroxide the first couple of months. Good luck to everyone, and just be patient with it!

Pros: i just started taking it a few days ago so im not sure yet.. Cons: seems like my skins breaking out still, not any worse basically the same/maybe a little less...i know it takes time for everything that was clogged in you're pores to unclog..so im not giving up. Bottom Line: I really really hope that taking Vitamin B5 works!!Ive been taking 4-5 grams to start off..bought it from GNC. I don't have really oily skin but i break out alot..not horribly but enough for me not to want to go out..so hopefully this is my cure!! I hear so many good things so i really hope this works for me!!!!! cross your fingers. Usage: Reviewer has used this item for a day or two. Price Paid: 12.00 Was this comment helpful?

May, Saint Paul, MN Jan 22nd, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I've tried everything from prescription meds & topicals to OTC topicals. Nothing worked! B5 cleared my skin completely as in no more pimples after 1 month. Mild breakout at first but be patient. Cons: lots of pills to pop and sooo much water Bottom Line: Be patient and stick with it! I have the most complicated skin and its the only thing that has worked for me over the past 16 years of my life. You must continue b/c I didn't and the acne gradually came back... Keep it in your regimen like a vitamin b/c research shows that acne sufferers lack this vitamin. Recommended: Yes Usage: May has used this item for about a year.

Pros: Really Does work, and it worked pretty fast for me too. Cons: Ive only been taking it for like 5 days and im sh*tting out water every day. Not to mention my stomach aches and feels like I have stomach flu or somethingn Bottom Line: A good alternative to topical prescriptions during the winter time. Or if you have really bad side effects to topical prescriptions. Recommended: Yes Usage: Dan has used this item for about a week. Price Paid: 40.00 Was this comment helpful?

Olivia, Palm Harbor Jan 13th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Greatly improved my acne, although it has failed to clear it up completely. Cons: Horrible taste Bottom Line: I'm very glad I tried it. At the time I tried it, I was in utter despair as to what to do about my adult acne.(Never experienced acne until I was about to turn 40) When I first tried it, I was averaging about 20 simultaneous Zits. After being on b5 for about a month, it cleared up to 2 or 3 at a time. Now it has gone back up to between 4 and 8 at a time. Although, I'm not quite sure why it has gone back up, at least it is not as bad as it was.....so far. I'm going to continue to use the product for now along with looking into some other things. Since I've started to experience acne, even with the B5, I have yet to experience a day when my face was 100% clear. So, my search continues. I have increased my dosage to three teaspoons a day and I will update as to whether or not this makes a difference. Recommended: Yes Usage: Olivia has used this item for a few months.

Peter, Asia Jan 8th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I did see an improvement in my skin by taking about 3-5g a day. been taking it for like about 10 days. Cons: you will feel easy hungry if you didn't take enough food before u take the pills Bottom Line: Vitamin B5 isn't a miracle pill. You need plenty of water and enough rest to let your body immune system to do the rest. Recommended: Yes Usage: Peter has used this item for about a week. Price Paid: 21.00 Was this comment helpful?
