A member asked:

Is it okay to take biotin while on implanon? just got the implant about 3wks ago but just started taking the biotin multivitamin. is it safe to take?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe but why biotin: A normal person (without biotin deficiency) eating a well-balanced diet can be just fine without buying biotin supplements. The NIH reports: there is no recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for biotin; but adequate intakes for biotin are 7mcg for infants, 8mcg for children aged 1-3 yrs, 12mcg for 4-8 yrs, 20mcg for 9-13 yrs, 25mcg for 14-18 yrs, 30mcg for >18 yrs, 35mcg for breastfeeding women.
