The rows in the top or bottom tenth of the products that list the same ingredient, and any above the adult upper limit at the most servings a day the directions give:
- Its 130 mg of pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is higher than 93% of the 10,060 pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) products that print an amount; 719 list more.
