Hello all. I've been suffering from very severe acne problems for over 2 decades now, and I'm very desperate. I've tried pretty much everything, including 4 stints of Accutane which worked, but each time I stopped it my acne and oil came back and each time I took it I had some horrific side effects. What I haven't tried yet though is Vitamin B5, and I'd really appreciate it if you can help me and answer these questions:

For those who used B5 to successfully treat acne, what vitamins and supplements did you use it in conjunction with, what doses of the B5 and these supplements did you take, and what brands of these supplements did you use? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I should go for a timed/sustained release B5 right?

I'm looking to start taking B5 as soon as possible. If there's anything else I should know or any pointers you can give me before I start, please tell me.

Again, thanks a bunch for the help. I appreciate it dearly.
