I bought some MSM (1000mg) tablets today at Trader Joes and I was wondering if it was okay to take MSM and Biotin at the same time? I have been taking 5mcg of Biotin everyday for the last 50+ days. I have not noticed a major difference in my hair while taking the Biotin and was thinking of either switching to MSM or taking them both. I am almost out of Biotin (just enough to get through Friday). Should I wait to start the MSM until after the Biotin is gone, or will it be okay to take both?

I also take a daily Women's multi and a Calcium supplement.

Thanks!

Ive been taking Biotin for a couple of months and just started taking MSM last week, there seems to be quite a few people on here taking both and as far as I know it is safe to do so. If you worrie it would probably be best to see your Doctor or Pharmacist to check. I did notice an improvement with my hair after taking biotin (well it stopped falling out!) but Ive heard great things about MSM so thought I would give it a go too!

I take both and haven't had any problems but I'm not sure of the scientifics so I'm also curious if anyone knows for definite it's fine to take both!

I have started taking MSM for the last two days, and since then I have had headaches. Someone else suggested to take the MSM with another supplement to prevent headaches, but I can't find it. Does anyone else know what the other supplement was?
