Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I went to the pharmacy today to try and get some B-5 cause I can't fing it anywhere. The parmacist told me that B-5 was Biotin. He gave me a bottle that comes 3000mcgs per pill. I told him that I was going to take a gram a day and he said that I would destroy my kidneys. He said to take only 6000mcgs a day for a month and then 3000mcgs after that. What is going on? Do you guys know what you are talking about or is he a dumbass? I told him it was to help w/ acne and he said that it can help for that. BamBam

I guess he isnt very well read on his vitamins!
B5- Pantothenic acid- I think it is great for acne, especially AS induced acne. It is the one thing that had cleared my skin up after breaking out bad from AS and has kept my skin almost 100% clear ( I dont use AS anymore though) I am using it right now at about 2-2.5grms per day.

You can get it in most places that sell lots of vitamins. The typical drugstore only has maybe a 30% chance of having it. A place that is more specifically a health food or supplement place will have it. I bought some today made by Twinlab. Just wanted to get on the stuff but I'm going to start looking for a good deal to get it really cheap.
Chances are it won't even say B-5 on it, it will just say Pantothenic Acid but it will be shelved with the rest of the B vitamins. I got it at Whole Foods in Los Angeles and there was at least 5 different makers of it on the shelf including Country Life, so it's not a rare supp or anything.

www.puritan.com has a deal! Buy 2 get 3 free.
BAC has it for cheap, but I had to take a crap load(10g daily) in order to get good results. I read somewhere your body can only absorb so much, the rest is just pissed out. I get better results on KAL 1000mg Time Release tabs, 5g clears everything up, 3g to maintain. You should be able to pick them up at local health food stores i.e. Wild Oats. For the dosages requires, 500mg tabs at GNC can get expensive. Not sure about it being hard on your kidneys, been taking it for over a year now without any problems. But I also drink 2.0 gallons h20 daily, which also may help with clearing the skin up. Helps to keep skin moist and remove toxins from your body.

aas doesn't give zits much, but it makes my pores look huge. Will it help with that?
I went back to that pharmacy today to take back that shit he tried to push on me. This time the owner was there and he said I was crazy that they dont make B-5. He is a old burned out drug dealer anyway. I started to hit him in the mouth but didnt want to go to jail. Also, my GNC sucks, they dont have it. I guess I will order it off the net. Thanks for the help. Bam
