It's generally not labeled as B5, tons of manufacturers label it as Pantothenic acid. You may have looked in the wrong section. But I found it at walgreens, HEB grocery store, etc..

In my case, I look for both labels. Nobody carries it where I live, and I don't step foot in walmart unless I have some valium or something like it. That place gives me anxiety attacks.
Might sound like a moron for asking this but what is IPA???? I need to do something, I am on HRT and in my "fixing" stages and breaking out BADLYYY on my neck, shoulders and back and its starting to get nasty. Ive tried everything including oral antibiotics and every topical and wash you can think of. I also am in the Vitamin/Supplement business so have easy access to anything I need in that category. Panothenic Acid(B5) is one of the most effective at high doses I have told people that for years especially if you have naturally oily skin as it is. It slows down the rate and amount of oil you can secrete by directly affecting your pores! So AWESOME advice with the vitamin/mineral combo!! Now I need to take my OWN advice and any other advice you guys can give me! It's Summer time and Beach Season here in NY and I cant even take my shirt off!
So, What's the dosage I should follow on this?
First time cycler here, how is the acne on the face? Is it more on the back, shoulders?

Hey Austinite would you recommend trying this protocol on a 15-20 year old male or female? or would their acne come back due to the teenage hormone reasons?

I am looking on amazon and I don't see Patothenic Acid (B5) in powder form. Looking for "Now" brand. Did you buy it off some other site?
I did find other brands. Way cheaper than buying capsules, would these work fine I guess? (I put space in the http that needs removing) h ttp://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dhpc&field-keywords=+b5+patothenic+acid+powder&rh=n%3A3760901 %2Ck%3A+b5+patothenic+acid+powder

If your skin is already clear do you run the same dosage mentioned to just "prevent" or do you lessen the dose?
If your skin is clear and not prone to acne, long term use of pycnogenol alone should suffice as a preventative measure. But everyone should be taking zinc daily, regardless of acne.

Just got my package from amazon. 120 caps of 50mg zinc from NOW and a 500 gram tub of B5 from Superior Nutraceuticals. Starting to take them tonight before bed. I don't have severe acne but I always have outbreaks. Been having this nightmare for my whole life, 41 years. I have tried RX crap and OTC stuff and not one was 100%. Thanks for the info, will give you an update later.
Just a quick question on this, it's been about 2 weeks for me. Going to reduce to 5 grams of B5 now (man this stuff tastes bad and doesn't mix well).
Is it normal to see a little more breakout the first couple weeks or should skin clear up right away? I feel like I have had an increase as of right now but I know similar side effects occur with other forms of acne control. Not getting discouraged, I figure I will give it atleast 6 weeks before I get worried.Sucks being 41 and having acne, starting TRT soon and I am sure that will not help the breakouts.
^ yes. Normal. you're getting cleaned out. Stick with it. All this stuff would have come out eventually, you're just speeding up the process and cleaning up from the inside out.

Both times it took, I threw up. stopped taking stopped throwing up
Could have been because I took it on an empty stomach
Austin what is your take on this for pantheonic acid?

Glad I stumbled across this thread. I have tried everything to clear my acne.. Well almost everything.
Starting this now! altho gotta say the 10 b5 pills is a bit sketchy at first. specially when the label says 1 pill is 5000% daily%
Will keep the thread posted!
Thanks for the info
