HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Biotin 1000 mcg by Radiance
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
Radiance Biotin contains one active ingredient: biotin, a B vitamin that supports hair, skin, and nail health. The tablet also contains several inactive ingredients (dicalcium phosphate, cellulose, stearic acid, cellulose coating, and vegetable magnesium stearate) — these are fillers and binders that give the tablet its form.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Biotin is likely effective for biotin deficiency — if your doctor has confirmed you're low in this vitamin, supplementing can help. For multiple sclerosis (MS) and seborrheic dermatitis (a type of skin inflammation), the evidence suggests biotin is possibly ineffective.
For alopecia areata (hair loss in patches), there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate how well it works.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Biotin is generally well tolerated, even at fairly high doses, because your body sheds excess through urine. High-dose biotin rarely causes mild diarrhea — two patients taking 300 mg daily reported this.
One isolated case report linked very high-dose biotin (10 mg daily) to a serious lung and heart inflammation, but it's unclear whether biotin caused it or other factors were responsible, and no similar cases have been reported since. The amounts in prenatal vitamins and food are appropriate; if you're considering a high-dose supplement like this one, talk with your doctor first.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for biotin with any medication types. That said, absence of documented interactions isn't a guarantee none exist.
