Biotin is an essential water-soluble B Vitamin. The name biotin is taken from the Greek word bios meaning "life." Without biotin, certain enzymes do not work properly and various complications can occur involving the skin, intestinal tract, and nervous system. Metabolic problems including very low blood sugars between meals, high blood ammonia, or acidic blood (acidosis) can occur. Death is theoretically possible, although no clear cases have been reported.

Biotin deficiency is extremely rare. This is because daily biotin requirements are relatively small, biotin is found in many foods, and the body is able to recycle much of the biotin it has already used.

Do an online search for Biotin and 1,000's of places will pop up offering to sell you this product.

Macro, I take a Vitamin that is manufactured in Australia....Berocca Performance. It has ALL the B vitamines, including Biotin, and some other stuff. I have to buy it on Ebay from a lady who lives in New York on the Canadian border, but you should be able to buy at your local drugstore!

It comes in three flavors and effervesces in Water like an Alka Seltzer tablet. I use the orange, stir in a tablespoon of Fiber supplement AND a packet of Crystal Light that is orange flavored because I can still taste the Vitamins a little if I don't.

If Biotin is a B vitamin then you probably get enough by eating your daily Vegemite! Vegemite is full of B vitamins.
