Vitamin supplements and acne?

Options
I have problem skin and one thing I've considered that may help is making sure I'm getting all my essential daily amounts of vitamins and minerals. However I've found that vitamin supplements (multivitamins, vitamin D, the dissoluble energy tabs) all seem to make mu skin break out.

Anyone else experience this or know why it happens?

    I’ve tried everything including various vitamin supps like zinc; no noticeable changes.

    My problems started a couple of years ago and are hormone related - but the only thing that worked for me was Adapalene gel (retinoid, brand name is Differin)... but it isn’t a spot treatment and takes months to show results. Have you talked to a dermatologist?
