Concern by dpo_iman: How much Biotin is proposed for hair progress?
I recently completed my Accutane treatment and have experienced from hair decline as a side result. I seen Biotin assists hair expansion and also nail energy. How a lot is proposed (5 mg, a thousand, 3000, 5000)? Is there a formula depending upon bodyweight? (i.e. 107 lbs) Are there any other nutritional vitamins recommended? Given that Accutane is still in my technique, I want to steer clear of any type of multivitamins since they contain Vitamin A. Any assist is appreciated. Thanks!

don’t use too much! i use this stuff as daily vitamins… and i use 2 tablets of 300 mcg
You can’t OD on Biotin if you take too much it will just make you sick.. I have taken 2000mg and been fine.
I don’t believe any study that says a vitamin will make hair grow faster. Hair is a waste, made up of keratin, a protein that is not alive. Hair grows on average 1/2 inch a month. Biotin may make new growth stronger, but I don’t believe faster. Biotin is found in many common foods such as eggs, milk, carrots, lots of things.
Nevertheless, here are the recommendations.
