Hey guys, I've had moderate acne since grade 9, im now in grade 12 and still suffer from it, after trying fish oil, and zinc my acne still didn't clear up, I now just take a Vitamin A + D pill, it contains 10,000 IU Vitamin A, and 400 IU Vitamin D, I've been taking 1 pill a day for 2 weeks and I've noticed my acne has cleared up a little and I don't have any new pimples really, my question is how many pills should I be taking, I also have Zinc pills which are chelated, each pill contains 50mg of Zinc, should I be taking that as well? ANy help is needed thanks!

I wouldn't take anymore Vitamin A. You're taking the maximum limit (10,000 IU) recommended right now.

You might want to look into a separate vitamin D pill that just has vitamin D. Take 5,000 to 10,000 IU of that daily.
