A member asked:
Help, how much biotin should be taken a day for healthy hair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Biotin and Hair!: Take between 2000-5000mcg per day. This is a small amount when you consider it is 2mg to 5mg/day. I do not know why, but virtually all mulivitamins ( check) contain less than 20% of the minimum daily requirement.
