It can be found at online vitamin wholesalers and retailers as well as your local health food store. Ebay may also carry panto acid at a decent price.

You must take 5-10 g every single day and you must spread out the dosages evenly throughout the day after each meal or snack. You will need very large bottles of pantothenic acid to treat your acne and you will have to be prepared to continue buying the vitamin B-5. Continue this regimen for at least 3 months, up to 6 months or even a year, to see if you get any results.
