Talk to Dermatologist on Is Vitamin C Tablets Causing Acne?
Asking For Self, Female 26, Rawalpindi
dentist suggested me to increase my Vitamin C in take for bleeding gums and I bought these from pharmacy. I have been taking since three days and suddenly pimples started appearing on my face. near eyebrow, cheek and on chin. is there any connection between these two like any side effect of these tablets? moreover, I did not use any thing new with my skin or any treatment. my diet was regular like before without any junks or oily food. the pimple in picture as you see is having pus and a black dot on it.

It is safe generally but if you are having problems with this formulation you may use Tab. Redoxin or Tab. Cecon 500 mg od as alternate for Vit. C. Regards
It's not known for vit C or Ca causing the rash on face. Maybe it's the stress that had nothing on your rash.
Secondly if you are not dieting and eating fruits and veggies you are not deficient of vit C. The dental surgeon has to look for some other reasons causing bleeding gums.
