Has anyone used Pantethine?
 

Just started using Pantethine yesterday and am noticing a laxative effect, which is not all that umpleasant right now.
Does anyone have a similar experience? I'm taking 1 300 MG softgel with meals three times daily as directed by, well, the Atkin's Book.

Hi Im taking Mega pantethine -450mgs.
The instructions on the bottle say
one softgel daily after a meal.
I'd say if you are doing 300x3 thats 900 mgs
which is double what my directions are...perhaps thats why you have a loose stool. My bowels are like cement so i stepped up Flaxseed oil,and borrage oil.

Hi Aisha,

Thanks for the reply. Since I originally posted, things have smoothed out to a little more normal on the same dose. I referenced Atkin's book whose dosage spoke about taking between 900 and 1500 mg daily, so I figured one with each meal.
My bottle (Jarrow formulas) says to take one to 3 softgels per day with meals. I'm going to continue with this dose until my next blood test in a few weeks to see if the supplement helps drop that bad cholesterol reading. I'll let you know if I have any success. I better. The stuff isn't cheap. Take Care.
