I've had real bad acne on my back for years, way before I started using gear. It is getting worse now, and making me real insecure and I want to be able to take off my shirt this summer to show off all my hard work, but no way that is going to happen unless I can get this shit cleared up. I don't really want to use accutane because if I do, I can't use gear at the same time, and I want to do a cycle during the summer. I heard pantothenic acid works good at high doses, around 5 - 8 grams a day. Has anyone had this problem and used this product and did it work? I have been using all kinds of acne washes, but to no avail, even with showering twice a day. I'm getting really depressed about this because what the fuck am I working so hard for if I'm embarrased to take my shirt off?    | ||

krazyk....B-5 will help with acne. It cleared mine up at 3 grams a day and now I take 2 grams a day. There are a lot of posts on how to cure acne. One thing I did't find in the search was where to get pantothenic acid(b-5).... I'll help you out and tell you vitaminshoppe.com is where I get mine at now. Make sure you get the 1000mg pills and not the 500 or smaller. You wouldn't want to take a 10 500mg pills a day. Fuzz  | ||

I used to have mad bacne when i was younger. When I came off my first cycle it came back. I took B-5(5 grams ed) for about a week and it cleared up, tanning helps too. I'd also look for panthoic acid body wash or shampoo, its kinda of spendy tho- Go Big- | ||

I have been taking 2grams per day for the last 5 days. My skin is getting dryer but I can't tell if it's working or not yet. It's pretty expensive along with all the other pills that I pop ------------------ | ||

Pantothenic acid works wonders. Go to www.beyond-a-century.com They sell 250grams for $17 including shipping. It's powder form. I used it before, and it worked wonders. I stopped, and it's been about 6 months since I last used it. My acne started coming back, so I ordered another bottle about a week and a half ago. I'm taking two tsp's a day. One in the morning, and one late in the afternoon. That gives a little over 5g of B5 a day. I've been at this dose for the past 5 days, and have noticed my skin clearing back up. I'm going to stay at this dose for 10-15 more days, then drop down to 1tsp per day. Here is a direct link... https://www2.acadia.net/cgi-bin/BAC/web_store.cgi?product=Vitamins&cart_id=1780395_5416

That's why I only want to use 2 pills per day.
