Beaware Of tablet BIOTIN!!!
Biotin is available as 1 mg, 3 mg, 5 mg, and 10 mg oral capsules or tablets. The recommended dosage for biotinidase deficiency is 5-20 mg per day. Biotin is also available in supplements containing combinations of other B vitamins or multivitamins and many Hair fall or Hair care Supplements or Gym Supplements.
The dosage of biotin in these supplements are often much higher than the recommended adequate intakes. However, toxicity from biotin even when taken in high dosage (up to 200 mg/day) has not been reported. However, high intakes of biotin may be associated with clinically important interference with certain lab tests leading to inappropriate medical care.
Means ...
Many patients taking biotin tablets can often have their blood test report Wrong!!!
there are new studies which show that people who are taking biotin tablets more than or equal to 10 mg per day can have some blood test with wrong results. those blood test primarily are thyroid function test including TSH and thyroglobulin, Troponin.
Clinicians are advised to suspect interference when lab data do not fit the clinical picture and to ask specifically about biotin use.
Thyroglobulin is a marker which is used as a follow up in thyroid cancer patients.
Troponin is used as a Cardiac Marker for Acute Cardiac injury.
