Just started Biotin
I started taking Biotin on the 11th, I'm taking 150ml twice a day (300ml total), I purchased 50 grams pharm grade on-line for $124.00; I'm really hoping to see positive results because my ppms continues to get worse by the month. I will post any results for others who may be interested.

I was taking 500mcg daily. I'm on Tecfidera and was having hair loss issues. It definitely helped with that and energy levels. I accidentally bought a bottle of 1000mcg last time so I asked my neuro and he said that was still a safe level. I'll probably go back to 500mcg once this bottle is gone though.

Hi everyone
I am excited to start Biotin in two weeks. I saw my MS neurologist June 27th for my annual appointment. She told me about the success with Biotin for PPMS and SPMS. She has a few patients on it and have shown success. It takes about 6- 8 months to see any effects. I tried betaseron, novatrone, copaxone and a few drug studies when I was still RRMS and none had any effect. I did two CCSVI procedures since progressing to SPMS and nope nadda again. My neuro said Biotin has little to no side effects as it is a B vitamin and the body eliminates what isnt used and it doesnt build up in the liver to cause any damage.
At this point I am willing to try anything..
