Biotin Overview
Biotin (vitamin B7) is used to prevent or treat low levels of vitamin B7 in people who do not get enough of the vitamin from their diets. Most people who eat a normal diet do not need extra vitamin B7. However, some conditions (such as pregnancy, parenteral nutrition, rapid weight loss) can cause low levels of vitamin B7.

How to Use Biotin
Take Biotin by mouth as directed, usually once daily. Follow all directions on the product package. If your doctor has prescribed Biotin, take it as directed. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. If you are taking chewable tablets, chew the tablet well and swallow. If you are taking extended-release tablets, swallow them whole. Do not crush or chew extended-release tablets. Doing so can release all of the drug at once, increasing the risk of side effects. Also, do not split extended-release tablets unless they have a score line and your doctor or pharmacist tells you to do so. Swallow the whole or split tablet without crushing or chewing. If you are using the rapidly-dissolving tablet, allow the tablet to dissolve under the tongue and then swallow, with or without water. If you are using the liquid form of Biotin, carefully measure the dose using a special measuring device/spoon. Do not use a household spoon because you may not get the correct dose. Some liquid products need to be shaken before each dose. If you are using the powder form of Biotin, prepare the medication as directed by the product package. Take this vitamin regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time each day. If your condition lasts or gets worse, or if you think you may have a serious medical problem, get medical help right away.

What are Biotin side effects?
Side effects are physical, mental or emotional symptoms which occur in addition to or outside of the desired effect of a therapeutic treatment such as an over-the-counter or prescribed drug or medication. Side effects from Biotin may occur at the beginning or at the end of treatment and may also depend on the length of time an individual remains on the treatment. Side effects, also known as adverse effects, are generally more likely to occur when starting treatment. Individuals may also experience side effects from Biotin as a result of an interaction with other medications.
Side Effects of Biotin
The side effects of Biotin may vary in number and intensity for many different reasons. Factors such as age, weight, gender and ethnicity may influence the side effects of Biotin. Also, an individual’s state of general physical health and seriousness of the disease or illness as well as an increase or decrease in dosage may lead to side effects. Further, side effects from Biotin may also occur as a result of an interaction with certain herbal supplements, foods or drinks.
