I get tiny tablets of 7500mg of Biotin from Puritans Pride online.

Am a little confused.. my doc prescribed Biotin for me but the tablets are just 10mg each? should it be much higher?

I just started using Biotin maybe 2 weeks ago and I really think I am starting to already notice some changes in my hair and nails. My nails are getting longer and feel harder and my hair seems to be growing. It's kjnda weird or just my imagination.

I have been on biotin for almost two months now, they told me to start on 1000 mg, I started taking 5000 and I still am losing so much hair every day. Also, I had my surgery in June and I'm only down 37 lbs... Sheesh...

How much Protein are you getting in daily? If your intake is low that could explain the slow weight loss & excessive shedding.

I have increased my protein, brought all my levels up (eg) Vitamins b12, Iron, etc...I'm so ready to get back out, but in single digit numbers, no thanks...snacking a bit more...good days, bad days....I need some suggestions!

I also started to take Biotin and i am noticing a great difference in my nails and hair.

How much Zinc? The vitiamin that my Dr. recommends has 75mg of Zinc. Is that enough? Off to the store to get me some Biotin

I take 10,000 of Biotin for my nails, hair and it helps with my lashes too.

10mg equals 10,000mcg ... just found that out at the store. You are taking the highest possible.

Is there a liquid or chewable form of 10mg biotin that any of you suggest?

Natrol makes some that dissolve in your mouth. I use those and I bought them at Amazon.

I have been taking hair skin and nail vitamin from vita4life. They have worked great for me. Apart from containing biotin it also contains MSM that really boost the hair growth and helps in maintaining a healthy skin and nails. I have been taking them for over a year now and have really helped me in getting a healthy skin.
