Side effects of Vitamin B5 in details
sponsored
No serious side effects have been reported, even at intakes of up to 10,000 mg (10 grams) per day. Very large amounts of pantothenic acid (several grams per day) can cause diarrhea.
Pantothenic acid works together with vitamin B1, vitamin B2, and vitamin B3 to help make the fuel our bodies run on—ATP.
There is one report of a 76-year-old woman who developed a life-threatening condition (eosinophilic pleuropericardial effusion) while taking 300 mg of pantothenic acid per day and 10 mg of biotin per day.2 However, it is not clear whether the vitamins caused the problem.
Vitamin B5 contraindications
Haemophiliacs, patients with ileus (due to mechanical obstruction).
