not bad, it helped me clear some of it up
It's not like accutane. B5 prevent acne from happening in the same way, as it makes the glands to produce less excessive oil. Anti-biotics attac the acne/bacterias, not the source..Quote:

I'm on my fith day now. I think it's getting worse now...not sure.. but I don't give a ****, I hope it will get better eventually..
For me results were visible within a week and just kept getting better. I tried everything under the sun and the B5 cleared it right up. The longer you use it the better it gets...the key is taking 10g a day split 4 or 5 times throughtout the day. Definately worth a try.
Only downside is I got the sh*ts for a while when I first started.
It helps me, doesn't clear it up totally, but definitely helps.

I used it in my last cycle with good results. I didn't run it as high as 5g/day though. I think the most I used was 2g split throughout the day. Then once I cleared up I ran a maintinance dose at 1g throughout the rest of my cycle....had no more probs.
