The duration of the treatment course depends on the nature and course of the disease.

Raw egg white contains the protein avidin, which interacts with biotin, so you should avoid taking them together.

Eating a large amount of raw eggs for 2–3 weeks can cause biotin deficiency.

Impact on clinical laboratory tests.

Depending on the study, results may be falsely high or falsely low due to taking a biotin-containing medicine. The likelihood of exposure is higher in children and patients with renal impairment and increases with higher doses.

When interpreting laboratory test results, the possible influence of biotin should be considered, especially if there is a lack of agreement with the clinical picture (e.g., thyroid test results mimicking Graves’ disease in asymptomatic patients taking biotin, or false-negative troponin test results in patients with myocardial infarction taking biotin). When interference is suspected, alternative tests that are immune to biotin interference should be used.

When ordering laboratory tests, patients taking biotin should consult with laboratory personnel.

The medicine contains lactose, therefore, if you have been told by your doctor that you have an intolerance to some sugars, consult your doctor before taking it.
