I was just wondering how many of you take Biotin and how much per day do you take? I take 1000 mcg per day and if I am correct I think that is 10mg Anyone take more? What was/is your affect with using Biotin? |

I take 4500mcg of biotin (3000mcg in my Hair, Skin and Nail vits and a 1500mcg tablet by itself) and 3000mg MSM. I've taken this for a while w/ no negative side effects. ------------- ~~  LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!~~

Monet001 1000 mcg is 1 mg. doctors recommend that for hair growth at least 2400 mcg or 2.4 mg of biotin should be taken. Many people take at least 4000 mcg to 7200 mcg of biotin for hair growth. ------------- IloveRob |
