Pantothenic Acid Reduce Pimples?

A friend of mine told me vitamin b5 reduces pimples, is this true has anyone tried it? If so why haven't drug companies or dermatalogists tell you about it?

I dunno... try oxyclear or one of the many other otc acne medicines.

I use oxy, it works pretty well.

To prevent acne, you shuld wash you face frequently with soap and water, as well as drink plenty of water. Dehydration can cause breakouts, believe it or not. Lack of sleep can too. Eating greasy or unhealthy foods does not neccserarily cause breakouts, it's just a myth. Each and every person's body chemestry is different, so some foods might be bad for you but not to other people.

If your indesperate need of medication, just check the Google ads on the right. --------->
