Vitamin B5, pantothenic acid.

[saint808]

I just picked up some B5, well actually it is labeled as Pantothenic acid, but it is the same stuff I am pretty sure... ok how do i go about using it for my acne... here is what i have heard.
5gms a day for 1 week
1gm maintenance dose for the rest of my natural born life.

Is this correct?
Also is it better to take with food... that's a lot of capsules.


Thanks,
Rich

I started taking 3-4 grams a day last week, and I am already noticing a dramatic difference. I got 250mg babies, so I just take 4 capsules 3-4 times a day with food.

Where did you get the high dose tabs. I could only find 100mg tabs. That's a lot! any suggestions on where to get

 

[saint808]

they are gnc brand... labeled as pantothenic acid not as b5... grey/silver bottle, 100 per bottle.

Go to the Vitamine Shoppe, I think it's http://www.vitaminshoppe.com. Do a search on Pantothenic Acid and sort the columns by strength. You'll see that Kal makes a 1000mg pill that costs $16.79 for Qty 100. They are quite the horse pills, but it beats taking a handfull of smaller pills.

This worked for me on a normal sust/deca cycle but it didn't help when I switched to Anavar/Winny at the end of the cycle. I was taking up to 3-5 grams a day for the maintainance portion.
