How much vitamin A is too much (acne question Please Help!)?

Okay, so I've been taking evening primrose oil three times a day and washing with acnefree severe system. The cleansing system was getting rid of my acne, but not preventing breakouts, so I started taking the primrose oil which helped, but it's still not cured. I started taking a general multivitamin about 3 days ago with the primrose oil and have seen some improvement. The multivitamin has 2500 iu of vitamin A. Today i bought some vitamin A which has 8000 IU in it. In all I've taken 18,500 IU of vitamin A, but I know that it can be toxic if taken in large doses. What's the max I can take? I've heard of people taking 30,000 or even 100,000, but that sounds awfully high. I don't think my acne is sever enough to go on accutane, it's just really resistant to treatment. Help!

no!!

where did u get the idea that vit. A was the solution?

you need to detox, if you want to cure your acne.

i tried everything, inc. roaccutane, which worked while I was on the 12 week

course, then after it all came back.

there are loads of factor involved in acne, You need to address all these internal

problems, using natural methods.

this is the site that i used to get clear.

if it worked for my severe acne, then it will work on you.

all the best
