Question 1

is 10000 mcg biotin too much?

Accepted Answer

High dose: It is a high dose and has been recommended by some dermatologists and alternate medicine practitioners for hair loss at dose of 2000 to 10000 micrograms..It is considered a safe supplement with minimal side effects like nausea, pain, stress;anxiety, diarrhea and chest pain.And rarely itching.

Question 2

is 10,000 mcg biotin too much? i want to grow my hair.

Accepted Answer

It's not too much: The recommended dose is generally up to 5000 mcg, but 10,000 shouldn't be a problem.  Remember, not everyone responds to Biotin.  If that fails after 6 months or so, Consumers Reports recommends an alternate proprietary product sold by Whole Body Research.  No product can guarantee results.  Good luck

Question 3

i'm 16 yers old would it be okay to take two biotin pills that contain 10,000 mcg or is that to much for me?

Accepted Answer

Sounds like a lot: Adequate intake of biotin is 25-30 mcg for adolescent and 35 mcg for an adult daily.  So 10,000 mcg sounds like a very large amount.

Question 4

i'm 19 and i take 10,000 mcgs of biotin daily. i only have noticed a difference taking this dosage but is it too much for me?

Accepted Answer

Biotin: Please start taking it once a week and gradually take it every other day. If you are tolerating this you don't need it more often. If not, feel free to take it daily.
I strongly suspect you won't need it every day.

Question 5

is 300 mcg of biotin too much?

Accepted Answer

No it is not too muc: No it is not too much.Daily requirement is 30 microgram per day, which is readily available in food supply.It is used as much as 8000 to 10000 micrograms dose for hair loss prevention and growth.300 micrograms is not too much accordingly.

Question 6

Question 7

Question 8

is 7500 mcg to much biotin to tske everyday?

Accepted Answer

Probably: Did you know that biotin is a "B complex vitamin" but it is also known as Vitamin H?  Confusing I know, but beside the point. The adequate adult dose of biotin is 30 mcg per day, but up to 2500mcg per day for hair/nail health. I wouldn't recommend more than that. Too much biotin will cause slower release of insulin, skin rashes, lower vitamin C and B6 levels and high blood sugar levels.

Question 9

how much biotin of mcg for an adult to take a day ?

Accepted Answer

It depends: The recommended daily intake for biotin is 30 mcg but most people don't need to take any as it is fairly easy to get that amount via your diet. However. Some people benefit from larger amounts for conditions such as diabetes and brittle nails. Doses up to 16, 000 mcg/day have been used to treat diabetes and have been found to be safe.

Question 10

how much biotin mcgs do you recommend for a person to take daily ?

30mcg/day.: It is recommended for people over the age of 18 years, to take 30mcg a day of biotin.
