Nutricost Biotin 5,000 mcg
High-potency biotin (vitamin B7), 5,000 mcg in one softgel a day, with 150 in the bottle
This is Nutricost's biotin softgel: 5,000 mcg of biotin, also called vitamin B7, in one softgel a day. The bottle holds 150 softgels, about five months' worth. Each softgel is biotin in coconut oil inside a gelatin shell with beeswax.
Biotin is a B vitamin your body uses as a helper for the enzymes that process fats, sugars and amino acids (NIH ODS). Nutricost files it with its vitamins and women's health products. At this strength, biotin can throw off some lab tests, so read the caution below before your next blood work.

How to use it
- Take 1 softgel a day with 8 to 12 oz of water.
- Tell your doctor, and the lab, that you take biotin before any blood test.
High-dose biotin can interfere with some lab tests, including thyroid and troponin tests, and make results read falsely high or falsely low. The FDA advises talking to your doctor if you take biotin, and says there isn't enough information to know whether stopping it for a set number of hours before a test avoids the problem. Contains coconut. For healthy adults 18 and older. Check with a healthcare professional before use if you're pregnant or nursing, take medication or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children, and don't use it if the safety seal is broken or missing.
A good fit if you
- Want a high-potency biotin in an easy softgel
- Like one softgel a day
- Want a bottle that lasts about five months

Common questions
How much biotin is in each softgel?
5,000 mcg, which is 16,667% of the Daily Value. The NIH sets the adequate intake for adults at 30 mcg a day, so this is a high-potency dose.
Will biotin affect my blood work?
It can. The FDA warns that biotin can make some lab tests, including thyroid and troponin tests, read falsely high or low. Tell your doctor and the lab you take it, and ask them how to handle it before a test.
Will it help my hair and nails?
Nutricost doesn't make that claim. The NIH notes that thinning hair and brittle nails are signs of low biotin, but says the evidence for biotin supplements in people who already get enough is limited to a few small studies.
Is it vegetarian?
No. The softgel shell is gelatin and it contains beeswax. It also contains coconut oil.
