Pros:

Started taking 4 500-mg capsules 2xdaily about four days ago. Dramatic improvement. Did Accutane 5 yrs ago and my acne is worse than ever. The aching, dryness and testing with Accutane was terrible. And horribly expensive.

Cons:

I have had zero side effects so far.

Why do dermatologists prescribe those expensive products when this is available? Could it be JOB SECURITY? Try this today. It's worth every penny compared to every other treatment out there!

Pros:

This is the only remedy that worked for me.. after 15 YEARS of trying.

Cons:

None.

I can't believe dermatologist ignore Pantothenic Acid (B5) as a cure for acne SHAME ON THEM for peddling for the drug companies. I finally heard about this product thru these forums. My skin was always like an oil-slick and the Pantothenic Acid clear it up completely!! I had to start by taking about 20 pills a day for 3 months (throughout the day) but totally worth it. My confidence level has increased 100-fold. TRY IT.

Pros:

Acne is almost gone, less oily skin

Cons:

Drying out skin on other areas of the body

This really seems to be working. My skin is almost acne free. Even when I do get a pimple it is much smaller than usual. My only complaint is that I'm getting dry patches on other areas of my body. I've only been doing this for about 2-3 weeks now and my face is 100 times better than before.

Pros:

Not only helps clear acne, but aids for "Energy and Metabolism".

Cons:

NO CONS

After reading message boards, product sites, medical research papers, and any other amount of research I could find I decided to start a daily dose of Vitamin B-50 (I chose it because it has 500% the daily value dose of Pantothenic Acid or Vitamin B5--or 50mg). This vitamin has been said that it aids the healing of acne and prevention of it coming back. I bought my B-50 at a well-known retail store in the pharmacy/vitamin section, and paid about $5 USD. I also take 1 dose of Zinc, 50mg (333% daily value), which I purchased for about $4 USD. Zinc aids in the immune system, fighting and preventing infection, which I have found is my acne problem, "infected pores". I take one pill of each. I've taken these vitamins for 1.5 months now, and my acne has cleared 95%. Using Zinc and B-50 my face is 95% better with little oil. I only break out a tiny bit during the week preceding my monthy cycle. I use a gentle cleanser and put 2.5% benz'l perox on my face nightly+for spot t

i had tried everything from clean and clear to differin, and nothing worked, and the differin made my face extremely oily. i read about vitamin b5 somewhere and even though i was a little skeptical, i ordered the vitacure brand. they are like little miracle pills. i am no longer oily at all, less oily than i was before i even started on differin. and i'm not dry either...my skin finally found a happy medium. i'd say my face is about 95% clear, and the little bit that i do still have after only two months of using vitacure is just some little bumps on my forehead, not one big pimple. if nothing else is working for you, then this stuff is definitely worth a shot!
