Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5) supplements

Half of the 10,060 pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) supplements in the NIH label database that print an amount list 12 mg or less per serving; the middle half list 6 mg to 50 mg (DSLD version 9.4.0, January 2026). The 73 products whose only supplement ingredient is pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) list a median of 500 mg.

How much pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) do supplements contain?

The median product lists 12 mg per serving. One in ten lists 3 mg or less, one in ten 100 mg or more. The amount printed most often is 10 mg (1,980 products).

How do the amounts compare with the Daily Value and the upper limit?

The FDA Daily Value for pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is 5 mg (adults and children 4 and older). The median product gives 240% of it per serving; the 90th percentile 2000%.

The upper limit is for total intake from food, water and supplements unless stated, and does not apply under medical supervision. A label amount is what the maker printed. This is data, not advice: the NIH ODS fact sheets explain what each nutrient does.

Which products list the most pantothenic acid (vitamin B5)?

On-market products, per serving, with a plausible amount: the rule leaves out likely entry slips, such as an amount far beyond every other label with no %DV or strength on the label to back it (each product page still shows its own amount, marked).
