Tag: Biotin supplementation

According to the FDA, high levels of biotin can cause clinically significant errors in laboratory tests, which may lead to misdiagnosis or inappropriate treatment. This critical risk is the single most important reason why shouldn't you take biotin every day, especially high-dose supplements, without a physician's awareness.

Despite popular rumors, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not issued a warning limiting biotin intake to only 4 weeks. The misconception likely stems from a critical, documented side effect of high-dose biotin: its interference with certain laboratory tests, which may require temporary cessation, not a fixed, universal time limit.
