Frequently asked questions
-
Biotin has several EU-authorised health claims. It contributes to the maintenance of normal hair, the maintenance of normal skin, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal energy-yielding metabolism, and normal macronutrient metabolism. It also contributes to normal psychological function.
-
The name Vitamin H comes from the German words 'Haar' (hair) and 'Haut' (skin), reflecting Biotin's traditional association with these areas of the body. It was given this name when the vitamin was first identified in the early 20th century. Today it is most commonly referred to as Biotin or Vitamin B7, but Vitamin H remains in use particularly in older European literature.
-
Yes — this is an important consideration. High-dose Biotin supplementation can interfere with certain laboratory blood tests, including thyroid function tests and cardiac biomarker assays such as troponin tests. This is because many immunoassay-based tests use biotin-streptavidin technology which can be disrupted by elevated biotin levels in the blood. Always tell your doctor or healthcare professional that you are taking Biotin before having blood tests.
-
Each bottle contains 60 capsules. At the suggested use of 1 capsule per day, this provides a 60-day supply.
-
Each capsule contains Biotin and a small amount of rice flour used as a capsule filling aid. The capsule shell is HPMC, a plant-derived vegetarian cellulose. No magnesium stearate, artificial colours, artificial sweeteners, or hydrogenated oils are added.
-
Yes. The capsule shell is made from HPMC (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), a plant-derived material. There are no animal-derived ingredients anywhere in the formula.
