B5 During cycle

**Tryin2getHUGE** · 06-23-2004, 06:42 PM

I have researched and found out that B5 is a good supplement to help offset acne. My question is, since most people do not start getting acne until they are either done or during their PCT, can you cycle the B5 in during your cycle to PREVENT acne later? And if so, what amount would you reccommend?

Thanks

Do you guys get your b5 in powdered form? I haven't been able to come across any here in Australia except in 500mg tablets. I don't want to be swallowing 20 tablets a day to take in 10g. Do any of youse have any addresses on the net where you can order online - i don't mind if its from overseas, it'd be cheaper then buying 100s of pills.

during your cycle or during pct or after or what

**rhapsody** · 06-24-2004, 04:30 PM

for me Im taking b5 but only as a maintenance dose during my cycle only 1.5g (500mg x3). Because Im not having the problem with acne as of yet. To me if you do not have sides why put more in escpecially 10g. The purpose is to activate coezyme -a. Why tax the kidneys/liver more than you need to. Besides I do not think there are any definative studies showing with high doses of b5 will PREVENT acne. Its true perhaps AFTER you get it that higher doses may be needed

**Tryin2getHUGE** · 06-24-2004, 05:03 PM

But, If you know that you are GOING TO GET acne AFTER your pct, why would you not take the B5 BEFORE hand to prevent it? Or does it not work that way?

**rhapsody** · 06-24-2004, 08:37 PM

do not think it works that way but theres only one way to find out. Take your 20 pills

you basically just need to adjust the doses accordingly, nobody can really tell you whether a certain amount will work for you or not. I'm using 15g now, to see if any changes occur, in conjunction with other meds.

Im not really sure why this was bumped, but I can tell you this. What you stated is exactly right. For some people 5g ED is enough, for others its 15g ED. It is based on individual needs and desired results. Also, it may actually get worse before it gets better, EVEN WITH B5. And remember that it takes a good month or 2 to start working properly. BTW, I am starting to get acne now, towards the end of my cycle, so I am going to start taking 8g ED and adjust from there.
